WATER WHEEL
(Earl Shuman / Sherman Edwards)


Mindy Carson - 1957



Water wheel, water wheel
Turning, turning, turning, water wheel
Tell me true, I wish I knew
Will my love come back to me

Remember this is where he kissed me
And said, "I love you so"
You heard him tell me you would miss me
It seems so long ago

Water wheel, water wheel
Turning, turning, turning, water wheel
Tell me true, I wish I knew
Will my love come back to me

I saw the water in the moonlight
Reflect his smiling face
The stars were falling from the June night
To watch our warm embrace

Water wheel, water wheel
Turning, turning, turning, water wheel
Tell me true, I wish I knew
Will my love come back to me

And though the Autumn leaves are changing
To red and flaming gold
I can't believe his love is changing
Because I love him so

Water wheel, water wheel
Turning, turning, turning, water wheel
Tell me true, I wish I knew
Will my love come back to me

Water wheel, water wheel, water ........ FADE
