[Verse 1:]
I wish I could come back to you, dear
'Cause I know that you want me too
But too much water runs
Under that old bridge
There's too many rivers between me and you
[Chorus:]
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 I've tossed
There's too many rivers to cross
[Verse 2:]
Don't think for a moment
I've blamed only you
We both k**ed the fruit on the vine
And when we try to put love back together
There's always a few
Little pieces you can't find
[Repeat Chorus:]
There's too many rivers to cross
