I'll return under the cover of night
Oh those were simpler times
We'd take a walk through the park and go out after dark
Obsessed with only ourselves.
I'll return like a river running home.
I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm..
I took a train there then another Somewhere cos you were on my mind.
You'll make a name for yourself
You'll make a life somewhere else far from this great town
I'll return like a river running home.
I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry.
But you'll never be just another river that runs into the sea
you'll be more, something more.
I know you'll worry
I won't return, you worry
I might get lost, but I'm lost if I stay here.
But I'll return like a river running home.
I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry
