Our River
Lyrics by D.B. Pacini & Robert Peterson ©

Verse 1 (Male):
A phone call in the morning brings a voice from years ago to life and
Somehow I’ve forgotten how to stand
Your voice feels better than that old worn shirt I love to wear
How long must I wait to hold your hand

Verse 2 (Female):
I’ll catch the first flight out, just meet me at the airport and I’ll
Know your smile from across the floor
I’ll soon be in your arms again and wading in your eyes
Swimming toward the blue I hunger for

Chorus (Both):
Come with me down to our river, walk with me my love
Dance with me beside our willow tree
Come with me down to our river, sit with me my love
Hold my hand beneath our old oak tree

Verse 3 (Male):
That missing branch now lies in beads that circle round your wrist
You know you
Honor me by wearing it once more
The moon will shine so bright that we can listen to it’s light
And we’ll remember just what dancin’s for

Chorus (Both):
Come with me down to our river, walk with me my love
Dance with me beside our willow tree
Come with me down to our river, sit with me my love
Hold my hand beneath our old oak tree

Verse 4 (Female):
A curious deer will stop to watch us with big brown doe eyes my darlin’
The setting sun will flicker with orange flame
As evening falls upon us darlin’ stars will shine so bright
A thousand sparklin' diamonds in the night

Chorus (Both):
Come with me down to our river, walk with me my love
Dance with me beside our willow tree
Come with me down to our river, sit with me my love
Hold my hand beneath our old oak tree
