Nope..full of rhymes. Touch/much, time/mine, sea/me. Okay, so that's only 3.

      Oh, my love
     my darling
     I've hungered for your touch
     a long lonely time
     and time goes by so slowly
     and time can do so much
     are you still mine?
     I need your love
     I need your love
     Godspeed your love to me

     Lonely rivers flow to the sea,
     to the sea
     to the open arms of the sea
     lonely rivers sigh 'wait for me, wait for me'
     I'll be coming home wait for me

     Oh, my love
     my darling
     I've hungered for your touch
     a long lonely time
     and time goes by so slowly
     and time can do so much
     are you still mine?
     I need your love
     I need your love
     Godspeed your love to me
