Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the waiting arms of the sea.
Lonely rivers cry, wait for me, wait for me
I'll be coming home, wait for me.
Oh, my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch,
A long, lonely time.
And time goes by,
So slowly and time can do so much
Are you, still mine?
I need your love,
I need your love,
God speed your love to me.
Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea.
Lonely rivers sigh wait for me, wait for me
I'll be coming home wait for me
Oh, my love, my darling
I've hungered hungered for your touch,
A long lonely time.
And time goes by,
So slowly and time can do so much
Are you, still mine
I need your love,
I need your love,
God speed your love to me.
