too many rivers

i wish i could come back to you

dear

'cause i know that you want me to

but too much water run under that old bridge

there's too many rivers between me and you

there's too many rivers to cross

dear

too many dreams have been lost

and there's too many long nights

that i've turned and tossed

there's too many rivers to cross

now don't think for a moment

i blame only you

we both killed the fruit on the vine

and when you try to put love back together

there's always a few little pieces you can't find

yes

there's too many rivers to cross

dear

and there's too many dreams that have been lost

oh there's too many long nights

that i've turned and i've tossed

there's too many rivers to cross
