Don't Try to Catch a River

Don't Try to Catch a River -Aphrodite's Child
When she flows
Don't try to catch a river
No one will ever catch her
When love goes
Don't try to catch your lover
For love is a kind of river
River flows over rocks and walls
And I'd like to know why
She seems to be far away from the sky
When she flows
Don't try to catch a river
No one will ever catch her
When love goes
Don't try to catch your lover
For love is a kind of river
Lovers leave their girls at sunrise
And I'd like to know why
They seem to be so ashamed of the size
Don't you try
Don't you try
Don't you try
Don't you try
River
River
River
When she flows
Don't try to catch a river
No one will ever catch her
When love goes
Don't try to catch your lover
For love is a kind of river
River carries along dead leaves
And I'd like to know why
Why don't lovers bring along wounded hearts
River
River
River
River
River
