Uriah Heep - Sail The Rivers lyrics

Would you give me One more chance If i agree to your demands Or will you turn the knife Keep me in pain till I can't take no more Would you take the breath of my life Or are you lookin' for something I never do right I should be the one to let go I could free your body and soul So here we stand Like actors in a play On an empty stage Not knowin' what to say I tried so hard to get through to you Oh, i need you If i ask for one more night Would you let me bathe in your light Would you let me cover you up And wrap myself around you So you feel my love Is this just the heat of the day Or am i really feelin' this way I see your silent tears Before the storm I feel the breeze From a love that's gone You've always walked On the open sand You'd risk it all so I'd reach out my hand I tried so hard to hold on to you Sail the river and drift away Find yourself on another day Don't reach out You have to hold me in bay Take a knife and cut me down Spill my blood Watch it fall to the ground There's no way to turn me around Be a part of you If i was to offer my life I'd give it up just to Bathe in your light And you could have it You could have it all My heart, my body, my soul Is this just the heat of the day Or am i really feelin' this way I wipe away the tears Before the storm I feel the breeze From a love that's gone So here we stand Nothing left to say I give it all but you turn me away I tried so hard to get through to you Sail the river and drift away Find yourself on another day Sail the river and drift away I will always be a part of you Sail the river and drift away Sail the river and drift away Sail the river ...
