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 k**ed 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
