The River - Ken Dodd

So still runs the river

on it’s journey to the sea

So still beats my heart for

you’re far so far away from me

So still runs the river

while I wait upon the shore

Amore retornae for my love

goes on forever more

Like the river forever more

I threw a pebble in the river

We watched the ripples flow

Beside my darling

see my darling

That’s just the way

our love will grow

And then I kissed you

how I remember

But oh I never knew

That like the ripples

on the water

Your love would

soon be fading too

So still runs the river

on it’s journey to the sea

So still beats my heart for

you’re far so far away from me

So still runs the river

while I wait upon the shore

Amore retornae for my love

goes on forever more

Like the river forever more

Like the river forever more…
