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

But too much waters run under that old bridge

And there's too many rivers between me and you

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

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

There's too many rivers to cross

[ steel - ac.guitar ]

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

For we both killed the fruit on the vine

And when you try to put love back together

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

Lord there's too many rivers...
