Hold me in your arms may they keep me sing me a lullaby cos i'm sleepy i'm scared you don't need me anymore bring me to the light of the morning and
Thinking, I've been thinking You've seen me glide along this way before This way before Drugged by dawn I sleep alone Lonely, I've been lonely And I'
Roll river Keep on rolling Ancient lady cold I'm forsaken Lost and forgotten Roll river, roll Roll river Roll river, roll Let it take me Free and unchain
Who's gonna shoe your pretty little feet And who's gonna glove your little hands And who's gonna kiss your ruby red lips mmmmmm mmmmmm mmmmmm Papa's
Ten thirty in this hotel room, You and I locked in the gloom, Lost out of love once again But I've got you here with me friend (Chorus) Cos you're here
