Old Man River’s laughing at me
making fun of my misery
I didn’t know the calamity
That losing you would bring me
The Moon said I’d be lonely
Without you, my one and only
The Stars said I’d cry a river too
And fill the lake with tears of blue
But I said, hey, what do they know?
But I knew when I watched you go
Now I taste my own tears of misery
Knowing what a fool I am to set you free
But without you I’m really not free
But a prisoner by my own perfidy
They wrote it all down, what I’ve done
Somewhere between clouds and sun
