A La Carte

River Blues

A La Carte


When I'm feeling down 
When in a world 
Of thousand tears 
I slowly drown 

Then I want to go back 
Where the world is mine 
And where I have left 
The best of my time

River blue
Take me back 
To the valley 
Where I belong 

Only you know 
That deep in my heart 
I feel lonesome from morn' 
Until the dark

River blue 
Tell my sweetheart 
That I miss him 
More and more 

River blue 
Tell him my love's 
Still strong
Roll on, oh river blue

I tried to play cool 
Tried to be free 
But all I found 
Was ache in my soul 

I am lost in walls 
I'm sinkin' in the crowd 
How I need your love 
I'm prayin' out loud

River blue 
Where's the door 
From dream to reality? 
Where's the way 
To living free in harmony?
