Dear River

[Verse 1:]
Holding on, dear river, to my skin
Whispering the places you have been
And I look back upstream.

Everybody knows the river comes the river goes
But you stopped here
You stopped here for me.

You took my heart in tow
How could I let you go.

[Chorus:]
I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
Keep up, keep up with you
I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
Keep up, keep up with you.

[Verse 2:]
Rolling on, dear river, does it end
I saw you though the canyon and the bend
Did you look back for me.

I could fight the flow and tug of war the undertow
But I'd never, not ever, succeed.

So when you're out to sea
I hope you think of me.

[Chorus:]
I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
Keep up, keep up with you
Yea I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
Keep up, keep up with you.

[Outro:]
Just keep on, river, gone is my friend
Just keep on, river, gone is my
Just keep on, river, gone is my friend
Just keep on, river, gone is my.
