Many rivers to cross
|
But I can't seem to find my way over
|
Wandering I am lost
|
As I travel along the white cliffs of dover
|
|
Many rivers to cross
|
And it's only my will that keeps me alive
|
I've been licked, washed up for years
|
And I merely survive because of my pride
|
|
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
|
It's such a drag to be on your own
|
My woman left me and she didn't say why
|
Well, I guess I'll have to cry
|
|
Many rivers to cross
|
|
But just where to begin I'm playing for time
|
There have been times I find myself
|
Thinking of committing some dreadful crime
|
|
Yes, I've got many rivers to cross
|
But I can't seem to find my way over
|
Wandering, I am lost
|
As I travel along the white cliffs of Dover
|
|
Yes, I've got many rivers to cross
|
And I merely survive because of my will...
