(Perry, Dozier, Goodrum, Cuomo, Landau, Jackson, London)
Didn't always have
The best of times
One would win, both would lose
Tried to make believe the feelings gone
Tried to make her into you
Within my heart I hear the truth
When the honesty shines through 'cause
Love's like a river
Flowing forever along
And I will be there
Forever right or wrong
So here we are
The same old place
Wondering what to do
Are we gonna make the same mistakes
Will I ever be with you
I swear my darling
This time I'll try
I'll make it up to you 'cause
Love's like a river
Flowing forever along
And I will be there
Forever right or wrong
Didn't always have
The best of times
One would win, both would lose
Tried to make believe the feelings gone
Tried to make her into you
Within my heart I hear the truth
When the honesty shines through 'cause
Love's like a river
Flowing forever along
And I will be there
Forever right or wrong
So here we are
The same old place
Wondering what to do
Are we gonna make the same mistakes
Will I ever be with you
I swear my darling
This time I'll try
I'll make it up to you 'cause
Love's like a river
Flowing forever along
And I will be there
Forever right or wrong
