Love Like a River

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 (Ooh, 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, running away, running away

Oh oh no no (Yeah)

My love is like a river
