Down By The River
Jon Allen
Letra

Do you remember, you took my hand,
And we walked out across the fields,
Down the lane and over the railway line
Our hearts were racing, our feet were chasing,
We were looking for a hideaway, getting lost and losing track of time

We went down by the river, we went down by the river
Where the water ran slow, that's where we let our lovin' run free.
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
Just layin' low, my true love and me

You let your long brown hair hang down
You saw your dress was swayin' in the breeze
We were skimmin' stones out across the stream
You had a lazy style and a carefree smile
You were a breathless beauty to be hold
The sweetest sight my eyes had ever seen

We went down by the river, we went down by the river
Where the water ran slow, that's where we let our lovin' run free.
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
Just layin' low, my true love and me

The water's risin', the stream's dividing
The river keeps rollin' on
Paper boats and pleasures drift away
And you may be just a memory
But you're shining like a distant star
That seems to me as clear as yesterday

We went down by the river, we went down by the river
Where the water ran slow, that's where we let our lovin' run free.
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
Just layin' low, my true love and me
