Love Is Like a River

[Verse 1]
Down by the creek, where the willows bend,
We carved our names in the bark again.
The water whispered, soft and low,
"This is where all true love flows."
[Chorus]
Love is like a river, winding and deep,
Carving out valleys, where secrets keep.
It rushes and it lingers, gentle yet strong,
Love is like a river, carrying us along.
[Verse 2]
We traded vows in the evening glow,
A cabin waiting where the pines grow.
The fire burned warm, the stars hung near,
The river sang, "You're home right here."
[Prechorus]
And when the rains fall hard,
When the banks start to swell,
We hold on tighter, through heaven and hell.
[Chorus]
Love is like a river, winding and deep,
Carving out valleys, where secrets keep.
It rushes and it lingers, gentle yet strong,
Love is like a river, carrying us along.
[Bridge]
Now a baby's cry fills the air,
Tiny fingers in my hand, so fair.
The river's widened, its course has grown,
This love's a legacy, a life we've sown.
