I was lonely and I was searchin' for the sun Your one and only, took a trip to get undone Well my high low mam, don't you give me the blues Take me to the river where I can let it loose All the lovin', ah like you never knew
Out back to where the dust grows old Where the spirits fly so high It was a cold dark night, and I swear we was feelin' right As our bones took us down, straight to the light
I'm goin' down, down, down to the river of love I'm goin' down, down, down to the river of love
All emotions, slip through my hands Like an ocean movin', rollin' in on the sand A sea of love, honey, where you been My love's been knockin' buy you ain't in Where's my lover
Out back to where the dust grows old Where the spirits never die That cold dark night, but I know we was feelin' right As we roll through the hours, down into the light
I'm goin' down, down, down to the river of love I'm goin' down, down, down to the river of love
Days are long and the nights run deeper Out back where the spirits never die
I'm goin' down, down, down to the river of love I'm goin' down, down, down to the river of love
