Текст пісні
The tides are running out
And taking my words out to sea
Will they ever return
And find their way back to me
Time is a traveller
Delivering another message my way
Do I take it all in
Or send it on its way
Winds on the river
Carry me along
Where moonlight is dancing to a midnight song
Winds on the river
Carry me along
Whisper me a tale
Where I can belong
Thunder in the distance
Light a fire in the trees
The hot breath of the desert
Brings you to your knees
Winds on the river
Take all my words down stream
Will they ever find a new home
Or be a lost dream
Winds on the river
Carry me along
Where moonlight is dancing to a midnight song
Winds on the river
Carry me along
Whisper me a tale
Where I can belong
I've been driving this road past the same old sign
Looking for the bridge that breaks up the rhyme
It's been a lovely chorus but I need a different line
I need a steady beat to keep me on time
You be yourself and I'll be me
If we see things differently
Then we both can agree
That nothing comes together when they are drifting apart
The only happy ending is when you see a new start
I'll be running, you take it slow
We can meet in the middle or at the end of the road
It's a jigsaw puzzle with a missing word
A second and fourth with a missing third
Somethings ajar
Somethings amiss
From near and afar
From boredom and from bliss
It's this game we are playing
That never follows the rule
So you dress them for weather
And send them off to school
I've been driving this road past the same old sign
Looking for the bridge that breaks up the rhyme
It's been a lovely chorus but I need a different line
I need a steady beat to keep me on time
The tides are running out
And taking my words out to sea
Will they ever return
And find their way back to me
