Riverboat

See the lonely riverboat
Go sailing by, the air does sigh
See the grass bank water flow
Fall and rise, it waves the skies
And the news from the town
It's all around, country bound

Come a-walking through the day
Forget the time, it's just today
Walk the lanes and fields
Feel the golden down, the whisper green
River, tell of their ways
Their smoky schemes, broken dreams

Sometimes turning my head
Time hurries by all the things you have said
Waiting, hoping in spring
I see you near, see you so clear

Songs of praises, summer ladies
Fresh as frost, they wander lost
Pastime seizing, sadness breezing
All my ways, October days
You are growing in vain
You're shrinking fast, your shadow's cast

Sometimes turning my head
Time hurries by all the things you have said
Waiting, hoping in spring
I see you near, see you so clear
