Could be an instrumental, except I like singing too much to do that.

To Cross the Big River
Words and Music Michael Alan Silverstone
©2012Mr. Silverstone Music Publishing/ASCAP

Baby I'm so sorry
we've been having such a difficult time
Lately I've been hoping that with time
that things would work out fine
But it isn't so simple
'cause it never is
two problems put together
labeled hers and his
Looks like we've been pushed to the edge
and have to cross the big river

It takes a lot of courage
to do what we know is right
I know we're only human
and we're never gonna change overnight
I hope that you'll forgive me
I mean what I say
I have always loved you,
maybe not the right way
But I tell you now I'm willing to try
to start by crossing the river

What you do
How you see
Who we are
is always changing
But you know
over time
it will get
perhaps a little stranger

So let's decide to do
what we must do to turn this thing around
Even if it means we must be
staking out some shaky ground
Know I adore you
and its worth my while
I've always been delighted
when I see you smile
I believe that I am ready to go
across that great big river
