Blue river,
It can't be found on any map that I know.
But it's the place where lonely lovers all go
To cry their tears.
Blue river,
It winds along a path of heartache and pain
Of broken dreams from lovin' someone in vain.
Like I loved you, and baby I still do.
I held you so tight.
You were out of my sight.
I'm feelin' so low
But I gotta go.
Blue river
Because you never really cared about me.
From now on baby that's where I'm gonna be
Cryin' over you, by the river of blue.
I held you so tight.
You were out of my sight.
I'm feelin' so low
But I gotta go.
