BLUE RIVER song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

cross the river wide
running white and high
no more will I roam
all this world all alone

blue river
blue blue river
bury me
beneath the stone
blue river
blue blue river
carry me
I'm coming home

so long I have been away
but now at last I have returned
tell to me does she sit and wait
or am I too late to learn?

it was only yesterday
half a thousand miles away
when found to my surprise
when at last I realized

blue river
blue blue river
take me back
to her brown eyes
blue river
blue blue river
wash away
a year of lies

she was all I really wanted
but I didn't know the cost
I'd do anything to get
back what I have nearly lost

Don't know what's in store for me
on the other shore to see
will she still be wild and free
or has she forgotten me

blue river
blue river
blue the heart
that beats in me
blue river
blue river
bluer than
all memory

and if she no longer cares
then I'll up and go away
but if just a smile she shares
she will be reason to stay

cross the river wide
running white and high
no more will I roam
all this world all alone

blue river
blue blue river
bury me
beneath the stone
blue river
blue blue river
carry me
I'm coming home
