"Too Many Rivers" lyrics

"Too Many Rivers"

I wish I could come back to you dear
'Cause I know that you want me to
But too much water has run under that old bridge
There's too many rivers between me and you

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 tossed
There's too many rivers to cross

Now don't think for a moment that I blame only you
We both killed the fruit on the vine
And when you try to put love back together
There's always a few little pieces that you can't find

Well, 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 tossed
There's too many rivers to cross
