lyrics

The timing’s just right
We are finished with our running around
I forgot your name on the first night I was in town
The temperature’s fine and the weather’s always working for us
But the wind is causin’ trouble in the valley where we lay in the dust
You can worry all night that you’re never gonna make it ‘til day
And I know a way we can keep each other’s worries at bay

You gotta spend some time alone with the woman you love
You gotta spend some time alone with the stars up above
You gotta spend some time wanderin’ around down
Down in the rivers of gold

The ice cream man sells a Gennee for a dollar or two
I can buy you one baby if you don’t mind walkin’ a few
You hurry up town but the snow’s slowin’ down all the trains
And I know a way we can fit a little time in the day
You gotta spend some time alone with the woman you love
You gotta spend some time alone with the lord up above
You gotta spend some time wanderin’ around down
Down in the rivers of gold
