When she flows
(Don't try to catch a river)
No one will ever catch her
When love goes
(Don't try to catch your lover)
For love is a kind of river
River flows over rocks and walls
And I'd like to know why
She seems to be far away from the sky
When she flows
(Don't try to catch a river)
No one will ever catch her
When love goes
(Don't try to catch your lover)
For love is a kind of river
Lovers leave their girls at sunrise
And I'd like to know why
They seem to be so ashamed of the size
Don't you try
Don't you try
Don't you try
Don't you try
River
River
River
When she flows
(Don't try to catch a river)
No one will ever catch her
When love goes
(Don't try to catch your lover)
For love is a kind of river
River carries along dead leaves
And I'd like to know why
Why don't lovers bring along wounded hearts
River
River
River...

"Don't Try To Catch A River" - на первый взгляд, легкий и развеселый битлоподобный номер в духе "Good Morning" с битлоподобными же подпевками (а-ля "Rain"), клавесином и резвой ритм-секцией. Однако, обращает на себя внимание несколько параноидальный вокал Руссоса, контрастирующий с общим непринужденным и радостным настроением композиции.
