River of Sorrow Lyrics

River of SorrowThere is a black river
It passes by my window
And late at night
All dolled up like Christ
I walk the water
Between the piersSinging
Oh
River of sorrow
River of time, river
River of sorrow
Don't swallow this timeFor we all know the baby has expired
Long ago she was pulled from the mire
And no precious liar or well-wisher
Can return the love that was stolenOh
River of sorrow
River of time, river
River of sorrow
Don't swallow this timeCan you see the light

At the end of the dark passageway
Take me wit you towads this light
Into the darkness passing over the faces in the river
Hear me!
I'm whispering in your ear!Oh
River of sorrow
Oh, river of time
River of sorrow
Don't swallow this timeOh
River of sorrow
Oh, river of time
River of sorrow
Don't swallow this time
