Many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wandering, I am lost
As I travel along White Cliffs of Dover
Many rivers to cross
And it's only my will that keeps me alive
I've been licked, washed up for years
And I merely survive because of my pride
(Ah) and this loneliness won't leave me alone
(Ah) it's such a drag to be on your own
(Ah) my woman left and she didn't say why
(Ah) well, I guess I'll have to try
Many rivers to cross (many rivers to cross)
But just where to begin? I'm playing for time (I've got)
There be times I find myself (many rivers to cross)
Thinking of committing some dreadful crime (I've got)
Yes, I've got many rivers to cross (many rivers to cross)
But I can't seem to find my way over (I've got)
Wandering, I am lost (many rivers to cross)
As I travel along the White Cliffs of Dover
Yes, I've got many rivers to cross (many rivers to cross)
And I merely survive because of my pride
