Like a River

She's the restless one, with a windswept heart
If I could only touch her
If I could only hold her
Well she's the only one
I see her comin' and I fall apart
But she will never touch me
She will never hold me
And I would die to be with her tonight

But like a river she runs wild
Like a river she won't be tamed
And in her river I'm drownin'
And like a fool I love in vain

Though I try to keep her, she only leaves me cryin'
I see her walkin' down the street
I watch her walkin' down my street
There ain't no way that you can miss her
There ain't no way that you can win
Everybody tries to stake her out
Will I ever know what she's about?
I'd kill to be with her tonight

But like a river she runs wild
Like a river she won't be tamed
And in her river I'm drownin'
And like a fool I love in vain

Like a river she pull me in
Like a river she drags me down
Though I try, but I just can't move
I wanna scream, but she won't let loose
No, she won't let loose
And now what am I, what am I, what am I gonna do?
What am I gonna do?

But like a river she runs wild
Like a river she won't be tamed
And in her river I'm drownin'
And like a fool I love in vain

But like a river she runs wild
Like a river she won't be tamed
And in her river I'm drownin'
And like a fool I love in vain
