Hold Back The River Lyrics - Singles - Gentle Bones

Tried to keep you close to me, 

But life got in between 

Tried to square not being there 

But think that I should have been 

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes 

Hold back the river so I 

Can stop for a minute and see where you hide 

Hold back the river, hold back 

Once upon a dear friend, life 

We rode our bikes into the sky 

But now we crawl against the tide 

Those distant days are flashing by
