(Chris McCarty and Steve Miller)

Wide river

She opens her mouth to the sea

Singing dear, dear ocean, now

Here is a kiss from me



And she runs like a river to the setting sun

She runs like a river that has never been won

She runs like a river that will always be free



Wide river

Carry me back home

To the place I love

That I call my own



And we can run like a river to the setting sun

Run like a river that has never been won

Run like a river that will always be free



Wide river

Do you remember me

It was not so long ago

That you set me free



And now I run like a river to the setting sun

I run like a river that has never been won

I run like a river that will always be free



Come on baby

Let's run in circles

Come on darling let's circle each other

And find the love, all the love that we need



Come on baby, let's circle each other

Well, we can do, do for each other

I'll do for you, and you'll do for me



And we can run like a river to the setting sun

Run like a river that has never been won

Run like a river that will always be free



And we can run like a river to the setting sun

Run like a river that has never been won

Run like a river that will always be free



And we can run like a river to the setting sun

Run like a river that has never been won

Run like a river that will always be free
