Oh, my love, my darling,

I've hungered for your touch

a long, lonely time.

Time goes by so slowly,

and time can do so much.

Are you still mine

I need your love.

I need your love.

God speed your love to me.

Lonely rivers flow

to the sea, to the sea,

to the open arms of the sea.

Lonely rivers sigh,

wait for me, wait for me.

I'll be coming home,

wait for me.

Oh, my love, my darling,

I've hungered for your touch

a long lonely time.

Time, goes by so slowly,

and time can do so much.

Are you still mine

I need your love.

I need your love.

God speed your love

to me.

Lonely rivers flow,

to the sea, to the sea,

to the open arms of the sea.

All alone I gaze

at the stars, at the stars

dreaming of my love far away.

Oh, my love, my darling,

I've hungered for your touch

a long, lonely time.

Time goes by, so slowly,

and time can do so much.

Are you still mine

I need your love.

I need your love.

God speed your love,

to me.
