Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Moon river
Wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style
Some day
[Verse 2]
Oh, dream maker
You heart breaker
Wherever you're going
I'm going your way
[Verse 3]
Two drifters
Off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
[Verse 4]
And we're after the same rainbows end
Oh, waiting 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend
Moon river
And me
[Verse 5]
We're after the same rainbow's end
Oh, waiting 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend
Moon river
And me
[Verse 6]
Oh, moon river, moon river, moon river, moon river
