Too Many Rivers to Cross

Sally Vaughn


I wish
I could come back
To you, dear

'Cause I know
That you want
Me to

But too much water's
Run under
That old bridge
There's too many rivers
Between me and you

There's too many rivers (Too many rivers, too many rivers)
To cross, dear (Too many rivers, too many rivers)
Too
Many dreams
Have been lost

And there's too many long nights (Too many rivers, too many rivers)
That I've turned
And I've tossed
There's too many rivers to cross

Now don't think
For a moment
I blame
Only you

We both
Killed the fruit
On the vine

When you try
To put love
Back together
There's always
A few little pieces you can't find

There's too many rivers (Too many rivers, too many rivers)
To cross, dear (Too many rivers, too many rivers)
And there's too
Many dreams
That have been lost

Oh, there's too many long nights (Too many rivers, too many rivers)
That I've turned
And I've tossed
There's too many rivers
To cross
