I'll meet you in the morning by the bright riverside
When all sorrow has drifted away
I'll be standing at the portals when the gates open wide
At the close of life's long dreary day
I'll meet you in the morning
With a how do you do
And we'll sit down by the river
And with rapture old acquaintance renew
You'll know me in the morning
By the smiles that I wear
When I meet you in the morning
In that city that's built foursquare
I'll meet you in the morning...
