There's too many rivers to cross
I wish I could come back to you, dear
I know, I know, honey, you want me to
But too much waters run under that old bridge
And there's too many rivers between me and you
There's too, too many rivers, oh, to cross, babe
Too many dreams have been lost
And there's too many long nights I've turned and tossed
There's too many rivers to cross
Now don't think, woman, for a moment
That old Jerry blames only you
We both killed the fruit on the vine
And when you try to put the love back together again
There's always a few little pieces that you can't find
Think about it, baby
There's too, too many rivers (too many, too many, too many, too many rivers)
Whoa, too, too many dreams have been lost
And there's too, too many long nights I've turned or I've tossed
There's too many rivers to cross
A whole flock of rivers, baby
