I hope I'm in your dreams
The way you are in all of my mine
You've got a love so fine
I wish that I could make you mine
Won't you sit down, you know I love you, honey
And you look so tired
I know it's hard how we're thrown into this life
And then one day we must die

But that river will flow on
Even after we're all long gone
Yes, that river will flow on
Won't you take me with you before I'm one

Then I walk into the room and there you sit
There you sit and you're so alone and quiet
Well, I can't help but stare
Oh, I love you and it just ain't fair

But that river will flow on
Even after we're all long gone
Yes, that river will flow on
Won't you take me with you before I'm one
