MOONLIGHT ON THE RIVER
(Bud Green)


Lee Morse - 1932
James Brown Jr. - 1932





I still remember a ling'ring kiss
A night divine
I sill remember a moment's bliss
And you all mine
Though only mem'ries remain
I live them over again

Moonlight on the river
Starlight in the sky
You and I in heaven
Then a parting sigh

Though our dreams are over
Dreams that were to be
Moonlight on the river
Brings you back to me

Lah-dah-dah-lah-dah-dah-dah-dah
Lah-dah-dah-dah-dah
Lah-dah-dah-lah-dah-dah-dah-dah
Lah-dah-dah-lah-dah-dah

Though our dreams are over
Dreams that were to be
Moonlight on the river
Brings you back to me
