I sit here alone on the banks of the river
The lonesome wind blows and water runs high
I can hear a voice call from out there in the darkness
But 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 goodnight
We met there one night, on the banks of the river
Sat there holding hands and making our vows
That we never would part and be happy together
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
