There’s a shallow river running down the hill
Moving softly through the valley where I live

When it rains
When it rains
When it rains the river runs so deep

When the water is clear and still like a mirror
I can see you on the surface of the river

When it rains
When it rains
When it rains the river runs so deep

In the rain
In the rain
In the rain
In the rain I weep

Where will I find you when I need you my long lost friend?
Bring back the mirror so I can see your face again

When it rains
When it rains
When it rains the river runs so deep
In the rain
In the rain
In the rain
In the rain I weep

In the rain
In the rain
In the rain
Into the river deep
