Following The River
The Rolling Stones Song Lyrics

There's something I should tell you

Why don't you sit there in that chair

You're looking good today

I love the way your comb's tucked in your hair.

My cards are on the table, but the drinks have all run out

There's been some other lads in this room with me, we're really quite a crowd

It's hard to break it gently, but I really thought it through

I don't think there's much future left, for me and you, me and you.

I've been following the river, til it joins hands with the sea.

I've been thinking of you so bad

Cause you always saw the best in me.

You'll probably forget me, and I'll fade back in the bar

Just a face disappearing without trace, I'll be lost, I'll be lost.

One day I'll hear some laughter in a out-of-town cafe

I'll be reaching for your number - I'll be calling out your name, calling out your name.

I've been following that river, gonna join hands with the sea

I've been thinking of ya all the time

Cause you always brought the best in me

I'll be following the river - oh my! till it spills out in the sea.

When I first think about ya, oh dear

Cause you always brought the best in me (always brought the best in me)

I'll be following the river (yeah!)

Gonna join hands with the sea.

Ah, if I can't have ya, I'll be dreaming all about ya

Cause you always brought the best in me

I'll be following the river, gonna join hands with the sea.

I'll be thinking about ya, cause you always brought the best in me.
