We are strangers to who we used to be
Endless changes that outweigh you and me
And I remember when we were the best of friends

Oh, take me back
Back to the river
Oh, take me now
Back to the river

We were dreamers heading for the city lights
There's no rivers for the days that have gone on by
Still, I remember when we were the best of friends

Oh, take me back
Back to the river
Oh, take me now
Back to the river

'Cause I remember the times we had
Oh, now brother it makes me sad
To think of you now
To think of you now
To think of you now

Oh, take me back
Back to the river
Oh, take me now
Back to the river
Back to the river
