Текст песни Across the River - Willie Nile

I saw you walking, I heard you cry
I saw you leave, I wonder why
Were they all cruel to you
Break your heart through and through?

Put your head down in my arms
And tell me what went wrong

Across the river, across the bay
People starving every day
Nearly naked, pale and wan
With crowds of people looking on

Hearts are pounding, heads are still
As tears begin to fall, I'm dreaming

Baby, hold me
Always let me know
Darling, hold me
Never let me go

I saw you walking, I heard you cry
I saw you leave, I wonder why
All those ages, all these years
As tears begin to fall, I'm dreaming

Baby, hold me
Always let me know
Darling, hold me
Never let me go
