Time and the river will bring my love to me
If I must, Ill wait forever
By the river that took her to the sea
Here by the river, we loved, we laughed, we cried
But with time, my love, my darling
Left my arms and was gone with the tides
How long I've been lonely
Star of love, shine bright
I need her, oh, lead her to my arms tonight
Time and the river how swiftly they go by
But my heart will beat for no other
Til time stands still and the river runs dry
