There's a place I wish I could be there
Far away from the streets and the
noise I would watch the flowers blossom
And everything is clear in my heart But it's not real,
I'm here in my room
Late
at night, I sit
and think about
What's long ago
and far away
And I wonder why
everything has changed Down by the river,
my mind is wide
open to
see Down by the river, down by the river,
down
by the river I wish you would be there with me
Down by the river,
down
Hand in hand, we would walk through the fields
The sun
shines softly on
your lovely face
I kiss you there
among
the flowers And everything is so unreal
Down by the river,
where I once
used to feel free
Down by the river,
down by the river,
down by the river
I wish you would be there with me
Down by the river,
down
Down by the river,
my mind is wide open to see
Down by the river,
down by the river,
down by the river
I wish you would be there with me
Down by the river,
down
Down by the river,
my mind is wide open to see
Down by the river,
I wish you would be there with me
