Patty Smyth - River of Love lyrics

rate me

I been standin' on the water's edge

Now you want to pull me in

But I been standin here too long

I can't remember if I can swim

Do you believe that people change

Now baby

Tell me that you see a change in me

I'm ready to begin

Cause I climbed a mountain, that ain't so tough

Now I'm going down to the river of love

I made some money, it's never enough

Now I'm going down to the river of love

Follow me down, down, down to the river

Now your big blue skies

And your deep blue water

Will not wash away the past

But to my heart I will surrender

And swear this time will be the last

And maybe I'm afraid of losing baby

Maybe it'd be worse to win

Either way I'm jumping in

I climbed a mountain, that ain't so tough

Now I'm going down to the river of love

I made some money, it's never enough

Now I'm going down to the river of love

Follow me down, down, down to the river

And I was thirsty baby

You came and filled me up

And now I'm ready, ready baby

To drown in your river of love

I climbed a mountain, that ain't so tough

Now I'm going down to the river of love

If it's too sweet I may never come up

I'm going down to the river of love

I've moved some mountains, that ain't so tough

Now I'm going down to the river of love

If it's too sweet I may never come up

I wanna drown in your river of love

Follow me down, down, down

To the river
