Lyrics Like a Mighty River - St. Paul & The Broken Bones

All I need is a little tender touch, it will burn the coal
Oh baby I heard what you said and I know we will be alright
You are just a tired girl and I am just a tired boy,
We ain't going to let it fall
But you can't, but you can't let me go,
We take it slow

Oh I
I am just working hard
And you
You just working too
And all of us
We just playing cool
Your love my love our love
Is like a mighty river baby

Please lord, can you hear my prayer?
Don't let it fall on deaf ears
There ain't anybody hearing me but I just got to scream
She is just a pure girl and I am just a dirty boy,
We just trying to work it through
But there ain't, but there ain't no words that cut to you

Oh I
I been just working hard
And you
You been just working too
And all of us
We just playing cool
Your love my love our love
Is like a mighty river baby

Got to let it flow
Got to let it flow
Flow
I know I know you got to let it flow
