The River Flows


Do not go, please stay with me

Do not leave, come take my hand;

Your mind and body drift away, you leave me here with no where to stay.

Just stay here, come and see

What you left on the stand

Do not go, please stay with me

I'll give away and let you be

Come with me, we'll make a band;

Your mind and body drift away, you leave me here with no where to stay.

Approach me, let us go and flee;

Come not near the darkened sand

Do not go, please stay with me

Let's go now, I have the key

To hold our hearts on the safe land

Your mind and body drift away, you leave me here with no where to stay.

Please stay, don't go with thee

Don't make me suffer, it's not a demand

Do not go,please stay with me

Your mind and body drift away, you leave me here with no where to stay.
