The River of No Return (From "River of No Return") Songtext
von Marilyn Monroe

If you listen you can hear it call, Wail-a-ree There is a river called THE RIVER OF NO RETURN
Sometimes it′s peaceful and sometimes wild and free!
Love is a trav'ler on THE RIVER OF NO RETURN
Swept on forever to be lost in the stormy sea
Wail-a-ree I can hear the river call (no return, no return wail-a-ree) I can hear my lover call come to me (no return, no return)
I lost my love on the river and forever my heart will yearn
Gone, gone forever down THE RIVER OF NO RETURN
Wail-a-ree wail-a-re-e-ee
He′ll never return to me... (no return, no return, no return) Never.
