Lonesome river

Update 2002-08-01


I sit here alone, oh 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 ahore 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
Sat there holding hands and making our vows
Swore we'd never part we'd be happy together
But a new love she's found she's gone from me now
