Lost on the river Dark is the night Just like the blind Praying for sight Drifting alone Heart filled with strife I'm lost on the river The river of life Once dear I thought I knew the way But that was before Old sad yesterday Words that you told me Cut like a knife I'm lost on the river The river of life Out on this river Where sorrow creeps Thiinking of you And how my heart weeps Tomorrow you'll be Another man's wife And I'm lost on the river The river of life
