was like the dersert sand

 Desolate without a drop of precious rain.
 You don't know the emptiness I felt inside

 Right before you came into my life.
 My days were dark as nights
 there was no way out in sight

 Now from that lonely wilderness I've been lifted.

 Your love like a river is flowing

 Rush over me
 like the seven seas keep rolling.
 Your love like a river is growing

 Deep inside of me I can feel it overflowing
 your love like a river.

 Now I know I've just been wasting time

 A desperate man whose soul was slowly dying.
 And the healing power I needed then was in your touch

 You've changed my life
 you've given me so much.
 My days were dark as nights
 there was no way out in sight

 Now from that cold and shallow life I've been lifted.

 Your love like a river is flowing
 ...

 Roll me on and on
 I'm drawn to you
 can't help myself

 Roll me on and on
 roll me on and on
 before I came to you -
 May days were dark as nights
 there was no way out in sight

 Now from that cold and shallow life I've been lifted.

 Your love like a river is flowing
 ...
 Your love like a river is flowing
