Following The River

There's something I should tell you

Why don't you sit there in that chair

You're lookin' good today, I love the way

Your comb's tucked in your hair



My cards are on the table

But the drinks are all run out

There's been some others in this room with me

Well, really quite a crowd.



It's hard to break it gently

But I really thought it through.

I don't think there's much future here

For me and you, me and you.



I've been following the river

'Till it joins hands with the sea

I've been thinking of you all day

'Cause you always saw the best in me

(Always saw the best in me)



You'll probably forget me

And I'll fade back in the fog

Just a face disappearing without trace

I'll be lost, I'll be lost.



One day I'll hear some laughter

In an out-of-town cafe.

I'll be reaching for your number

I'll be callin' out your name, callin' out your name



I've been following the river

'Till it joins hands with the sea

I've been thinking of you all the time

'Cause you always saw the best in me



I've been following the river

'Till it spills out in the sea

And I've been thinkin' of you all day

'Cause you always saw the best in me

(Always saw the best in me!)



I've been following the river

'Till it joins hands with sea

I've been thinkin of you, I've been dreamin' all about you

'Cause you always saw the best in me



I've been following the river

'Till it joins hands with the sea

I've been thinking of you all day

'Cause you always saw the best in me.
