Songtext von Lost River

There's a lost river that flows In a valley where no one goes Where the wild water's rush Rumbles deep in the hush Gone far from there now Lord I'll get back somehow To where the white water winds In the shadow of the pines Oh lost river now I'm coming back To the pot-belly stove Where the firewood's all stacked Come back girl go with me Where the lost river winds In the shadow of the pines Now everybody knows Where that lost river flows It's someplace he's lost Behind bridges that he's crossed Well he'd like to return But his bridges are all burned And he's much too far down To return to higher ground Oh lost river far over the ridge Now is it too late For me to build me a new bridge To the bright golden time When her love was still mine And the world was still wild Like the heart of a child
