Lyrics

0:11I sit here alone on the banks of the river
0:21The lonesome wind blows the water rolls high
0:32I hear a voice calling out there in the darkness
0:43I sit here alone too lonesome to cry
0:54Oh the water rolls high on the river at midnight
1:05I sit on the shore to grieve and to cry
1:16The woman I love she left me this morning
1:27With no one to love or kiss me goodnigh
2:23We met there one night by the banks of the river
2:34Stood there holding hands and making our vows
2:44Swear we'd never part and be happy forever
2:56But a new love she's found she's gone from me now
3:08Oh the water rolls high on the river at midnight
3:19I sit on the shore to grieve and to cry
3:30The woman I love she left me this morning
3:41With no one to love or kiss me goodnight
3:52With no one to love or kiss me goodnight
I sit here alone on the banks of the river
The lonesome wind blows  the water rolls high
I hear a voice calling out there in the darkness
I sit here alone too lonesome to cry
Oh  the water rolls high on the river at midnight
I sit on the shore to grieve and to cry
The woman I love she left me this morning
With no one to love or kiss me goodnigh
We met there one night by the banks of the river
Stood there holding hands and making our vows
Swear we'd never part and be happy forever
But a new love she's found she's gone from me now
Oh  the water rolls high on the river at midnight
I sit on the shore to grieve and to cry
The woman I love she left me this morning
With no one to love or kiss me goodnight
With no one to love or kiss me goodnight
