My love is like a river She just keeps on rolling along
No man ever can keep that girl From moving on Easy as she comes by Easy as she's gone
Get down, real down Crying how I love that girl She's as free as heaven on a breeze
Lay my burden down Down by the river's edge There I learned to let my lover be
And don't you know I'd hold you (hold you, oh, yeah) If I could find a way (oh, yeah, oh, yeah) If I could only catch you (oooh, catch you, oh, yeah) If only you would stay (stay, stay)
And don't you know I want you, (want you, want you) Baby, baby, baby, baby, stay (stay, yeah) If I could only love you, (love me) But girl you keep on Running away Oh oh no no (yeah)
