I wish I could come back to you, love,
I know that you want me to.
But too much water's run under
This old bridge
And there's too many rivers
Between me and you.
There's too many rivers to cross, babe.
Too many dreams have been lost.
And there's too many long nights I've turned
And I've tossed.
And 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.
There's too many rivers to cross, babe.
Too many dreams have been lost.
And there's too many long nights I've turned
And I've tossed.
And there's too many rivers to cross.
There's too many long nights I've turned
And I've tossed.
And there's too many rivers to cross.
