[Verse 1]
Holding on, dear river, to my skin
Whispering the places you have been
And I look back upstream
Everybody knows the river comes the river goes
But you stopped here
You stopped here for me
You took my heart in tow
How could I let you go
[Chorus]
I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
Keep up, keep up with you
I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
Keep up, keep up with you
[Verse 2]
Rolling on, dear river, does it end
I saw you though the canyon and the bend
Did you look back for me
I could fight the flow and tug of war the undertow
But I’d never, not ever, succeed
So when you’re out to sea
I hope you think of me
[Chorus]
I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
Keep up, keep up with you
Yea I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
Keep up, keep up with you
[Outro]
Just keep on, river, gone is my friend
Just keep on, river, gone is my
Just keep on, river, gone is my friend
Just keep on, river, gone is my
