If the rivers run dry, baby, how would you feel? (Riff 1) Craze, baby, rainbow's end Oh, baby, it's just a den for those who hide Who hide their love to the depths of life And ruin dreams that we all knew so babe And when the owls cry in the night (Riff 2) Oh, baby, when the pines begin to cry Baby, baby, how do you feel? If the rivers run dry, baby, how would you feel? Ah, baby how do you feel (Riff 3) Oh, brave I endure (Riff 1) Ooh, yeah, strong sheilds of love They can hold the wrath of those who walk And the boots of those who march Baby, through the Roads of Time so long ago (Riff 1) Fade out - John -
