WELL THE RIVER RUNS WIDE AND HIGH, BEHIND THE GENERAL STORE
AND I REMEMBER THAT LOOK IN YOUR EYE
LIKE THE KIND IVE SEEN A THOUSAND TIMES BEFORE
WELL YOU PICKED A FINE TIME TO LET ME DOWN
WELL YOU GOT ALL YOUR REASONS I KNOW
HONEY THAT IS WHY, I SIT AND WATCH THIS RIVER FLOW

WELL IT WASN’T TOO LONG AGO
YOU SAID I WAS THE LUCKY ONE
WITH YOUR COME ALONG SMILES
GIRL, YOU PROMISED ME ALL KINDS OF FUN
BUT SOON ALL THAT SUNSHINE, IT TURNS TO RAIN
AS THE DARK CLOUDS MOVE IN SLOW
HONEY THAT IS WHY, I SIT AND WATCH THIS RIVER FLOW

GUITAR SOLO

WELL THIS RIVER IT CAN SPEAK VOLUMES
IT TELLS US ALL WE NEED TO KNOW
WHENEVER YOU GET SAD AND LONELY
IT IS THE ONLY PLACE TO GO

WELL I REMEMBER THOSE NIGHTS
WE LAID OUT HERE AMONG THESE STARS
WELL IT WAS JUST YOU AND ME
AND A SNATCH OF LIGHT FROM PASSING CARS
WE PLEDGED OUR LOVE UNTIL THE END
AND I STILL GOT ALL THEM SCARS TO SHOW
HONEY THAT IS WHY, I SIT AND WATCH THE RIVER FLOW







I STILL REMEMBER THE SCENT OF YOUR HAIR
AS YOU LAID YOUR HEAD UPON MY CHEST
AND YOU SWORE THEN AND THERE
YOU WOULD NEVER BE LIKE ALL THE REST
SAID YOUD STAND BY ME FOREVER
AND I SWORE I’D NEVER LET YOU GO
HONEY THAT IS WHY, I SIT AND WATCH THIS RIVER FLOW


THE RIVER IT HOLD ALL OUR SECRETS
KEEPS THEM SAFELY TUCKED AWAY
AS IT RUNS ITS COOLING WATERS THROUGH YOUR HAIR
IT CAN WASH ALL THE PAIN AWAY


WELL IT’S GETTING NEAR DAWN NOW,
AND I GUESS I SHOULD BE ON MY WAY
BUT IT GETS TOO HARD TO MOVE
WHEN YOUR STUCK IN ALL THEM YESTERDAYS
THE PAST CAN REALLY HAUNT YOU
AND THE FUTURE, GOD ONLY KNOWS
HONEY THAT IS WHY, I SIT AND WATCH THIS RIVER FLOW


I TELL YOU THAT IS WHY, I SIT AND WATCH THE RIVER FLOW

IM TELLING YOU WHY, I SIT AND WATCH THIS RIVER FLOW

OH FLOW ON DOWN THAT NAVISINK BOY

GUITAR OUT
