For the longest time 
I searched high above the sky 
To find the one for me 
Sweet birds got in my limbs 
And told me it was purely destiny 
A few clouds came my way 
And suddenly came the break of day 
And it was you, only you 
Then I gave my love to you 
(And I gave my love to you) 
And I gave my love to you 
(And my rivers flow) 
And my rivers, my sweet rivers flow for you 
(Please don't tear my heart) 
Please don't tear my heart into two 
As I give my love to you 
As I open wide for you 
Sailing cautiously without knowing 
That my reality will soon come 
Strong winds brought me from my high 
I drifted gradually from my ride 
Touching down, kissing ground 
It's you that I look for 
Let's be two, my baby 
As I give my love to you 
(And I gave my love to you) 
And I gave my love to you 
(And my rivers flow) 
And my rivers, sweet rivers 
They flow for only you 
(Please don't tear my heart) 
Please don't tear my heart into two 
As I give my love to you 
As I give my love 
Tender lover, blow your cover 
Release emotions, for there's no other, but us two 
Give it to me, and I'll, I'll give it to you, mmm 
Discover trust in my sweet caress 
Female sunshine and nothing less 
Just the touch of my hand 
And infinite want for my man 
Yeah, gonna make you mine 
Yeah, until the end of time 
Mmm, 'cause I'm open wide with so little to do 
Simply put, I live my life for you 
Give it to me, and I'll give my love to you 
(And I gave my love to you) 
And I gave my love to you 
(And my rivers flow) 
My rivers flow for only you 
(Please don't tear my heart) 
Please, please don't tear my heart into two 
As I give my love to you 
As I open wide for you 
(And I gave my love to you) 
And I gave my love to you 
(And my rivers flow) 
And my rivers, sweet rivers 
They flow for only you 
(Please don't tear my heart) 
Please don't tear my heart into two 
Yeah, as I gave my love to you 
Yeah, as I gave my love 
And I gave my love to you 
And my rivers flow for you 
Please don't tear my heart in two 
As I gave my love to you 
(Yeah, and I gave my love to you) 
(Yeah, and I gave my love)
