A River In Time

Tom: Dm

A

[Verse 1]
                              G  A
Now I'm flying with the wind
                              G  A
And the spirits running free
                                   G  A
The mountains have turned to dust
                                G  D  Bm
And the desert is a raging sea


[Verse 2]
                  G
I'm a prisoner no more
                     A
If I just believe my eyes

(you've just got to believe it)
                                Bm
(you've just got to believe it)
                        G
Now I've opened up this door
                      A
And my future waits inside
                              Bb
(I know it's hard to believe)

Looking at eternity


[Chorus]
F         Bb       C
Love is a river in time
F          Bb      C
Now and forever, a bridge between lifetimes
Dm             G          C
Here there are no sad goodbyes
                      Bb
And your dreams never die
F                  D      Bb
Love is a river in time


[Verse 3]
  A                       G  A
A million years from now
                       G  A
Will war be obsolete? 
                            G  A
Will man live on the moon? 
                              G  D  Bm
Will flowers smell as sweet? 


[Verse 4]
                       G
Take this magic carpet ride
                     A
Going to the promise land

(I know it's hard to believe it)
                                Bm
(you've just got to believe it)
                        G
We shall need the human touch
                       A
Every woman, child and man
                       C7
(everybody believe it)
                          Bb
(reach across and take my hand)


[Chorus]
F         Bb       C
Love is a river in time

(love is a river in time)
F          Bb      C
Now and forever, a bridge between lifetimes
Em              A         D
Here there's no future no past
               C
Love is all we have
A                  E      C
Love is a river in time
           E
A river in time
