Little one

Down by the river under the trees

I've met my one

She waived me tender and blew me a kiss

Then she's gone

Ensnared me and dazzled my eye

I can't admit if she's a lie

I don't know why

I wanna sing when the song is over

All my life those fancies and dreams

Can't leave my mind

And meet her eye

Now I'm standing up on that hill

And see no leaf

They chained my river and cut out the trees

A bitter grief...
