Watching The River Go By 歌詞

As I write this letter; I can hear the river Runnin' by the back door, whispering a dream You're somewhere in the night sky high above the ocean Flying across the dateline I hope you get some sleep As you move, as you fly, think of me watching the river go by I'm no good at saying goodbye, so hello from the river and I I'm not an easy father, I never have been I'm a little like this country- my story runs deep I used to tie your laces, carry you on my shoulders I held you after bad dreams, and rocked you back to sleep So as you move, as you fly, think of me watching the river go by I'n no good at saying goodbye so hello fromn the river and I You're so far away making a life of your own I'm amazed by what you've done You're so far away in a world I'll never know I'm amazed by you my son So as you move, as you fly, think of me watching the river go by I'm no good at saying goodbye
