Over the rise

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
I walk along the levee to see the gypsy manThe dirt 'neath my feet baby's turnin' to quicksandHe looked into my palm, then looked me in the eyeAnd told me you were gone, gone over the riseOnce we stood together at the wishing wellOur wishes like dreams, baby, into the water fellOh then I kissed your lips but when I looked into your eyesThey were gone, gone over the riseTonight the blackbirds fly low on the water's edgeOh we walked this path not knowing where it ledNow at the bottom of the river deep lies something shiny and goldenIs a promise that love couldn't keep same as a promise broken*Well I woke last night to the sound of rainThe wind rustling branches against the window paneI searched the pillow beside me for the tears we criedBaby they were gone, gone over the rise
