There´s a little girl out lyin´ on her own
She´s got a broken heart
She´s not the kind to take you down for long
She knows and plays it smart

And if she´s comin´ she´s showed no mark
She´s heard no whistle blowin´ from the dark
She feels like leavin´ and she don´t know why
Without no bridges she´s trapped, so I sigh

Don´t cross the river if you can´t swim the tide
Don´t try denyin´ livin´ on the other side
All your life / You were on your own

If you want you can ride my train
And soon forget the reason that you´re leaving
You´ll lose yourself and then sometime
Maybe even save yourself some grievin´

Don´t cross the river if you can´t swim the tide
Don´t try denyin´ livin´ on the other side
Don´t cross the river if you can´t swim the tide
Don´t try denyin´ livin´ on the other side
Don´t cross the river if you can´t swim the tide
