River of no return
There is a river
Called the River of no return
Sometimes it's peaceful
And sometimes wild and free
Love is a traveler
On the River of no return
Swept on forever
To be lost in the stormy sea
Wail-a-ree
I can hear the river call (no return, no return)
Where the roaring waters fall
Wail-a-ree
I can hear my lover call come to me
(no return, no return)
I lost my love on the river
And forever my heart will yearn
Gone gone forever
Down the River of no return
Wail-a-ree wail-a-re-e-ee
He(She)'ll never return to me
( no return, no return, no return )
