In a sparkling moment,
|
I loved you, you loved me.
|
Oh, how sweet fate can he.
|
In that happy moment
|
I forgot all my past.
|
Now I realize the way
|
The spell was cast,
|
At last,
|
Refrain
|
Once we walked alone
|
Down by the river,
|
All the world our own
|
Down by the river.
|
Maybe the river made our love song start.
|
Full was the river, yet more full my heart.
|
So I love you two,
|
You and the river,
|
I'll he there for you,
|
I and the river
|
You will remember when you hear my song
|
Down when the river rolls along
|
|

Down By The River
