Song | Many Rivers to Cross |
Artist | UB40 |
Album | Labour Of Love |
Lyrics:Jimmy Cliff Music:Jimmy Cliff | |
Many rivers to cross | |
But I can't seem to find my way over | |
Wandering I am lost as I travel along | |
The white cliffs of Dover | |
Many rivers to cross and it's only my will | |
That keeps me alive | |
I've been licked, washed up for years and, | |
I merely survive because of my pride. | |
And this loneliness won't leave me alone | |
It's such a drag to be on your own | |
My woman left and she didn't say why | |
Well I guess, I gotta try. | |
Many rivers to cross but where to begin, | |
I'm playing for time | |
There'll be times when I find myself thinking | |
Of committing some dreadful crime. | |
I've got many rivers to cross | |
But I can't seem to find my way over | |
Wandering I am lost as I travel along | |
The white cliffs of Dover | |
Many rivers to cross and it's only my will | |
That keeps me alive | |
I've been licked, washed up for years and, | |
I merely survive because of my pride. |
Lyrics: Jimmy Cliff Music: Jimmy Cliff | |
Many rivers to cross | |
But I can' t seem to find my way over | |
Wandering I am lost as I travel along | |
The white cliffs of Dover | |
Many rivers to cross and it' s only my will | |
That keeps me alive | |
I' ve been licked, washed up for years and, | |
I merely survive because of my pride. | |
And this loneliness won' t leave me alone | |
It' s such a drag to be on your own | |
My woman left and she didn' t say why | |
Well I guess, I gotta try. | |
Many rivers to cross but where to begin, | |
I' m playing for time | |
There' ll be times when I find myself thinking | |
Of committing some dreadful crime. | |
I' ve got many rivers to cross | |
But I can' t seem to find my way over | |
Wandering I am lost as I travel along | |
The white cliffs of Dover | |
Many rivers to cross and it' s only my will | |
That keeps me alive | |
I' ve been licked, washed up for years and, | |
I merely survive because of my pride. |
