And I was seventeen with a new world to discoverLove was swift and shallow and so easy to get overLike a tiny mountain streamIt was cool, it was clean and I got my feet wetBut I still hadn't seen the riverI might have drifted on foreverBut I found you insteadAnd I felt like a waterfall in over my headIt was warm, it was deep and it was something I could keepAnd I won't forget the dayWe were swept away by the riverYeah, we've seen it overflowWe've seen it running lowAnd we almost hit bottomBut we never let goIt's always you and meOn our journey to the sea, the riverThere's a full moon on the waterAnd another in the skyAnd the stars shine down like diamondsSparkle like your eyesAnd I can't help thinkingHolding you tonightIt's like the first timeWe lay down beside the riverYeah, we've seen it overflowWe've seen it running lowAnd we almost hit bottomBut we never let goIt's always you and meOn our journey to the sea, the riverIt's always you and meOn our journey to the sea, the river*
