Cool breeze on the river
Wash away my troubles to the sea forevermore
Wind and willows whisper
Sadness is the sound___
Tell the tale of my once happy world that's fallen down
Old man I might be going where you're bound
Old man river I've come to talk again
Yes, I know you're tired 'cause your journey never ends
He's just like you, he's moving all the time
And I think he's moving me out of his mind
I want to travel with you
In your deep and emerald soul___
That's the only way to make it peaceful like before
We used to touch at midnight
But now I feel he's gone___
Even though he's lying next to me I feel alone
Old man it looks like time to travel on
Old man river I've come to talk again
Yes, I know you're tired 'cause your journey never ends
He's just like you, he's moving all the time
And I think he's moving me out of his mind
Old man river I've come to talk again
Yes, I know you're tired 'cause your journey never ends
He's just like you, he's moving all the time
And I think he's moving me out of his mind
