Hold Back The River (Original Session)

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Tried to keep you close to me
But life got in between
Tried to square not being there
But it's there that I should have been

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes
Hold back the river so I
Can stop for a minute, and see where you hide
Hold back the river, hold back the river

Once upon a different life
We rode our bikes into the sky
Now we're caught against the tide
Those distant days is flashing by

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes
Hold back the river so I
Can stop for a minute, and be by your side
Hold back the river, hold back
Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes
Hold back the river so I
Can stop for a minute, and see where you hide
Hold back the river, hold back the river

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes
Hold back the river so I
Can stop for a minute, and see where you hide
Hold back the river, hold back
Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes
Hold back the river so I
Can stop for a minute, and be by your side
Hold back the river, hold back the river

Lonely water, lonely water, won't you let us wander?
Let us hold each other
Lonely water, lonely water, won't you let us wander?
Let us hold each other

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
