Tried to keep you close to me
But life got inbetween
Tried to square not being there
But think that I should have beenHold back the river, let me look in your eyes
Hold back the river, so I
Stop for a minute and see where you hide
Hold back the river, hold backOnce upon a different life
We rode our bikes into the sky
But now we crawl against the time
Those distant days are flashing byHold back the river, let me look in your eyes
Hold back the river, so I
Stop for a minute and be by your side
Hold back the river, hold back
Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes
Hold back the river so I
Stop for a minute and see where you hide
Hold back the river, hold backOh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohLonely water, lonely water
Won't you let us wonder
Let us hold each other
Lonely water, lonely water
Won't you let us wonder
Let us hold each otherHold back the river, let me look in your eyes
Hold back the river, so I
Stop for a minute and be by your side
Hold back the river, hold back
Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes
Hold back the river, so I
Stop for a minute and be by your side
Hold back the river, oh
Lonely water, lonely water
Won't you let us wander
Let us hold each other
Lonely water, lonely water
Won't you let us wander
Let us hold each other
