The River of No Return (Remastered) Songtext
von Marilyn Monroe

Mmm
If you listen, you can hear it call, "Wail-a-ree" (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 traveler 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)
No return, no return (where the roarin' waters fall)
(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-ree), wail-a-ree
He′ll never return to me (no return, no return), never
