Blue River

Tell me why a song is sad Never glad Blue river Blue river Do you hold a memory of a vanished dream? Sing to me on lips I press And caress Blue river Blue river 'Til I saw my hopes go drifting down a stream Can't we all forget that bright Summer night? In our little canoe But our blue eyes lost the light As we whispered, "I do" When I hear your lonesome song I know that something's wrong Blue river Blue river Maybe it's because I'm just as blue as you
