Lonely and unsure
Cryin this river of tears
Missin her lovin
No way to know how
To get her back
If I had just one more chance
Baby, I would ask
The only one who knows
Reachin out
Water to smooth a troubled soul
As I drown in the loss
I sing this song


BRIDGE

River Man
Oh River Man
Please help me if you can
River Man
Please River Man if you can
Bring her back to me


Left a note
By her pillow
Spilling out
My words of sad sorrow
Now I know she's gonna cry
Be sad for a while
Cause this is the final goodby
Unless the River Man will hear my plea
Bring back a love
That I know was meant to be
If only she could see
Hear me as I sing this song


REPEAT BRIDGE


The ghost of love still lingers
In arms that can hold her no longer
Lips hunger for a last kiss
That never comes
Fate so cruel
Robbed us of our time together
Now on the other side of life's door
I still remember
My earthly ties
My lover, my wife
Please don't forget me
As I sing this song


REPEAT BRIDGE


Heartbreak
As another lover's teardrop falls
Remembering the good times past
Dying as I try to forget
The hurt in her eyes
The last time I left her behind
She pleaded for me to stay
Please Never to go that far away
But I saw the love she tried to hide
The love for another man
The one I used to say was my best friend
Now here forever I will wait for her
Singin this song


REPEAT BRIDGE 2X
