Oh, oh my love
Oh, my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long, long lonely time

And time goes by so slowly
The 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, won't you wait for me"

Oh, my love
Oh, my darling
I've hungered, hungered for your touch
A long, long lonely time

And time goes by so slowly
The time can do so much
Are you, are you still mine?

I need your love
I need, need your love
God speed your love
God speed your love straight to me
