I wish I could come back to you dear cause I know that you want me to

But too much water has run under that old bridge

There's too many rivers between me and you

There's too many rivers to cross dear too many dreams have been lost

And there's too many long nights that I've turned and tossed

There's too many rivers to cross

[ guitar ]

Now don't think for a moment that I blame only you

We both killed the fruit on the vine

And when you try to put love back together

There's always a few little pieces that you can't find

Well there's too many rivers to cross dear...
