River Dance
Take me back to the River,
To a riverboat ride at night,
Moonlight dancing on the water -
Glistening diamonds in the light.
Take me back to the River,
To the brilliant desert sky,
A prism of colors dance at dusk -
So breathtaking to the eye.
Take me back to the River,
Ducklings swimming to and fro,
Water lapping at the shore
With nowhere else to go.
Take me back to the River,
To the romance of the night,
Music whispered soft and low –
To the arms that held me tight.
Take me back to the River,
Let my beloved always be there,
Keep love warm with anticipation –
Keep the promise two hearts share.
