I wanted to feel like a bird
On the wings of time
But it was not our timeI wanted to lie for a while
In the fields and dream
But it was not to be, oh yeah, causeCause sometimes you got to let love go
Even though it's hurting, even though
And sometimes you got to let love slide
Oh, with the river
The river of lifeI wanted to hold you so long
In the dark till dawn
But I could feel you goI wanted to sing
In my head I could hear a song
But it was not our song, oh yeah causeCause sometimes you got to let love go
Even though it's hurting, even though
And sometimes you got to let love slide
Oh, with the river
The river of lifeSometimes you got to let love go
Even though it's hurting, even though
And sometimes you got to let love slide
Oh, with the river
The river of life
Oh yeah
But sometimes you got to let love slide
Oh, with the river
The river of life
The river of life
