Made a pact Lying there on our backs Swearing to every star that the sky did hold Promising our love was true Promising to see it through Then we headed due southwest across the Muscle Shoals
We slid down a riverbank in the pouring rain Giving thanks for the strength just to carry on through the fog and the cold There at the water's edge She tugged my arm, and I nodded my head Just one more step, and that river took ahold
When my love crosses over, I'm coming over, too To cross that mighty river that's before us to the new western world Mountains high and plain unfurled Desert stretching out to touch the Californias
We said we'd never look back We never have, and that's a fact That Mississippi washed us clean down to the bone The journey's been long, my friend Hell, you never know what state you're in Yeah, but the unknown is always the unknown
I lost track of you awhile But you were waiting for me with a smile Made me feel like a little child with a brand-new view Let's do it all over, babe It'd just be another trip we made When my love crosses over, I'm coming tooTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
