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 said
Hurt like a knife
I'm lost on the river
The river of life
Out on this river
Where sorrow creeps
Thinking of you
How my heart weeps
Tomorrow you'll be
Another man's wife
I'm lost on the river
The river of life
