From this valley they say you are going We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile For they say you are taking the sunshine That brightens our pathway a while Won't you think of the valley you're leaving Oh, how lonely, how sad it will be Oh, think of the fond heart you are breaking And the grief you are causing to me As you go to your home by the ocean May you never forget those sweet hours That we spent in the Red River Valley And the love we exchanged amid the flowers Come and sit by my side if you love me Do not hasten to bid me adieu But remember the Red River Valley And the boy that has loved you so true © transcript Emily Beynon
