From the Dave Saunders cassette album "It's All In The Words"

I just thought that I'd stop by to see the river one more time
One last look at the house that I bought for my bride
The home I brought my babies to, with so much love and pride
But now it's over, and we both can try again

The years run like the river through the mem'ries of my mind
Recallin' all the good times that we had
And wonderin' just what it was that made us both so blind
We never saw the good times turnin' bad

This house beside the river knows the story of two people
Who never really laughed, or really cried
Two people tied together in a hopeless kind of love
That never really lived, or really died

I just thought that I'd stop by to see the river one more time
One last look at the house that I bought for my bride
The home I brought my babies to, with so much love and pride
But now it's over, and we both can try again

Would it have been better if we'd tried a little harder
Or should we maybe not have tried at all
It really doesn't matter now, we'll go our separate ways
And never know the reason for it all.

I just thought that I'd stop by to see the river one more time
One last look at the house that I bought for my bride
The home I brought my babies to, with so much love and pride
But now it's over, and we both can try again

Yeah, it's over, and we both can try again
