Lyrics
Verse 1Tried to keep you close to me, but life got in between
Tried to square not being there, but think that I should have been
Chorus 1
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
Verse 2
Once upon a different life,we rode our bikes into the sky
But now we're caught against the tide, those distant days are flashing by
Chorus 2
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
Verse3
Woah woah woah woah woah woah woah (2x)
Interlude 1
(2x) Lonely water, lonely water won't you, let us wander
Let us hold each other
Chorus 3
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 be by your side
Hold back the river, hold back
Interlude 2 = Interlude 1
