River's Invitation

River's Invitation - Aretha Franklin (艾瑞莎·弗蘭克林)

I've been all across the country

And I've stayed in every town

You see I'm trying to find my baby

And he ain't nowhere around

Can you understand

You know which way I'm heading

If my baby can't be found

Oh yeah

Well I spoke to the river

And the river

The river spoke back to me

It said oh you look so lonely

And so much full of misery

Yeah you do now

If you can't find your baby

Come on girl

And make your home with me

Oh yeah

♬

I don't want to leave him

No I know

I know he's still alive

And someday I'm gonna find him

And he's gonna take me for a ride

Yes he will now

And then we'll live forever

And ever and ever

Forever and ever among the tides

Oh yes we will

Just in case I don't find him

I'm gonna take that river's invitation

River's invitation

Oh the river oh the river

Oh the river yeah

Oh the river's invitation

Yeah the river

Whoa
