The River Witch - Single Version

[00:15.75] We used to go walking
[00:19.55] Out in the moonlight
[00:21.95] Down by the river
[00:24.35] In love's own sweet town
[00:27.88] Lanterns still hang
[00:31.52] On the shoreline
[00:34.02] But that old love of mine
[00:36.23] She's nowhere around
[00:41.38] I ain't asking no one
[00:44.83] For promises of heaven
[00:48.30] I'm gonna wait by the river
[00:51.82] 'Til my lover comes around
[00:55.33] I'm gonna wait by the river
[00:58.68] 'Til my lover comes around
[01:06.94]
[01:19.97] The sound of the whistle
[01:23.15] Will echo forever
[01:26.49] It ripples like water
[01:28.43] Around my poor head
[01:32.07] She sings like the sirens
[01:34.86] The river man's daughter
[01:38.15] She's gone from her lover
[01:40.63] In his rocky bed
[01:44.85] I said, I ain't asking no one
[01:48.44] For promises of heaven
[01:52.70] I'm gonna sit by the river
[01:56.06] 'Til my lover comes around
[01:59.37] I'm gonna wait by the river
[02:01.81] 'Til my lover comes around
[02:09.03]
[02:24.18] Love falls as leaves do
[02:27.75] Making a blanket
[02:30.51] Under the branches
[02:32.63] Where new love will grow
[02:36.01] The witch of the river
[02:38.88] Can cast a spell on you
[02:41.59] Don't make her the only love
[02:44.69] That you'll ever know
[02:48.29] Oh, Lord
[02:49.02] I ain't asking no one
[02:52.03] For promises of heaven
[02:56.58] I'm gonna wait by the river
[02:59.55] 'Til my lover comes around
[03:02.84] I'm gonna wait by the river
[03:05.70] 'Til my lover comes around
[03:13.19] The river witch
[03:17.62] I'm gonna sit right down
[03:21.28] And I'm gonna wait by the river
[03:26.35] 'Til my lover comes around
[03:35.32]
