Have you ever seen a river?
Bursting at the seams with life?
Honey no I have not either
It’s just something that I think I’d like

Have you ever seen my true love?
The one who makes my heart to sing
Bells and ribbons it should only be love
For if it isn’t it don’t mean a thing

Take a pair of lonesome blue eyes
And a pair of eyes of green
And you could search the wide world over
They’re the prettiest I’ve ever seen
If the river burst the dream flow
That would only make me cry
Honey now I go where you go
I will love you till the day I die
