[Verse 1]
Today is drifting down the river stream
Tomorrow is nothing more than just a dream
Oh love, the river is so blue today
So blue, and life is sweet to live

[Verse 2]
Today the hours have little bells to ring
Tomorrow is just a song the night might sing
Oh love, the river is so blue today
So blue, it calls for us to live

[Bridge]
The moment is precious and fleeting
It flies like a bird to the sky
Oh darling, how this moment begs for capture
Let's take it to our hearts, don't let it die

[Verse 3]
Today is now and is forever too
Tomorrow who knows if I'll be here with you?
Oh love, the river is so blue today
The river is so blue today
And you today must be mine
