Like a Mighty River - St. Paul & The Broken Bones

All I need is a little tender touch

And yet we burn the coal

Oh, baby, I heard what you’ve been saying

And I know that we will be all right

You are just a tired girl

And I am just a tired boy

And we ain’t gonna let it fall

But you can’t, but you can’t let me take you down

'Cause we got to take it slow

Oh but I, I am just working hard

And you, you

You’re just working through it

And all of us

Ah, we just play it cool

Your love, my love, our love

Oh, it’s like a mighty river, baby

Please, lord, can you hear my prayer?

Don’t let it fall on deaf ears

But ain’t nobody hearin' me

So I guess I’ll just have to speak it

She is just a pure girl

And I am just a dirty boy

And we’re just trying to work it through

But there ain’t, but there ain’t no one to cut me

Like the words that she used

Oh but I, I am just working hard

And you, you

You’ve been just working, too

And all of us

Ah, we just play it cool

Your love, my love, our love

Oh, it’s like a mighty river, baby

Gotta let it, let it flow

Gotta let it, let it flow

I know, I know

I’ve gotta, gotta

You’ve gotta let it flow

I said let it flow
