|
I sit here alone on the banks of the river |
|
The lonesome wind blows, the water rolls high |
|
I hear a voice calling out there in the darkness |
|
I sit here alone too lonesome to cry. |
|
Oh, the water rolls high on the river at midnight |
|
I sit on the shore to grieve and to cry |
|
The woman |
|
I love she left me this morning |
|
With no one to love or kiss me goodnight. |
|
We met there one night by the banks of the river |
|
Stood there holding hands and making our vows |
|
Swear we'd never part and be happy together |
|
But a new love she's found she's gone from me now. |
|
Oh, the water rolls high on the river at midnight |
|
I sit on the shore to grieve and to cry |
|
The woman |
|
I love she left me this morning |
|
With no one to love or kiss me goodnight |
|
With no one to love or kiss me goodnight. |
