Following the River by The Rolling Stones Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's something I should tell you
Why don't you sit there in that chair
You're looking good today
I love the way your comb's tucked in your hair

[Verse 2]
My cards are on the table, but the drinks have all run out
There's been some other lads in this room with me, we're really quite a crowd
It's hard to break it gently, but I really thought it through
I don't think there's much future left, for me and you, me and you

[Chorus]
I've been following the river, till it joins hands with the sea
I've been thinking of you so bad
Because you always saw the best in me

[Verse 3]
You'll probably forget me, and I'll fade back in the fall
Just a face disappearing without trace, I'll be lost, I'll be lost
One day I'll hear some laughter in an out-of-town café
I'll be reaching for your number, I'll be calling out your name
Calling out your name
[Chorus]
I've been following that river till it join hands with the sea
I've been thinking of you all the time
'Cause you always saw the best in me
I'll be following the river, oh my, till it spills out in the sea
When I first think about you, oh dear
'Cause you always saw the best in me (Always saw the best in me)

[Chorus]
I'll be following the river (Yeah)
Till it join hands with the sea
Ah, if I can't have you, I'll be dreaming all about you
Ah 'cause you always saw the best in me
I'll be following the river, till it join hands with the sea
I'll be thinking about you 'cause you always saw the best in me
