Like a River that flows to the sea,
And on gentle tides return.
My thoughts flow out to the Great Unknown,
Return renewed, to comfort me.
Do you recall this thing you once told me,
That all this madness will pass?
I need to be with you,
Always be near you,
Got to make each moment last.
Hold me now,
Hold me now,
In your arms tonight.
Hold me now,
Don’t let go.
In your arms tonight.
Like a river that flows to the sea,
I glide downstream silent and free.
Should I be here when gentle tides return,
I know that you will find me.
Always remember what you once told me,
Our love will always last.
Hold me now,
Hold me now,
In your arms tonight.
Hold me now,
Don’t let go.
In your arms tonight.
