Oh, my love, my darlin'
I hunger for your touch, your long, lonely touch
As time goes by so slowly that time can do so much
For you, still I now need your love, I need your love
God, speed your love to me

Lonely rivers flow to the sea to the sea
To the open arm of the sea, yeah
Lonely riverside wait for me, wait for me
I'll be coming home, wait for me

Oh, my love, my darlin'
I hunger, hunger for your touch, your long, lonely touch
That all time goes by so slowly that time can do so much
For you, still I now need your love, I need your love
God, speed your love to me
