By the river
Rio Bravo, I walk all alone
And I wonder as I wander by the river
Where my love has flown
All the birds in the cottonwood above her
Know I love her, know I care
But my dreams, like the songs, she sang in Spanish
Seem to vanish in the air
I wonder where
So I wonder as I wander
Will love come along
Must I live ever after
By the memory of her song
While the river Rio Bravo, flows along
(Rio Bravo, Rio Bravo)
While the river Rio Bravo, flows along
(Rio Bravo)
