Sad River Songtext
von The Platters

(Sad river flow on)

Sad river flowing out to the open sea (sad river, sad river)
Carrying tears I shed from the heart of me
(Sad river, sad river)

Where do you go untended?
When do you reach your goal?
Why is it me pretending to laugh like a happy soul?


Sad river, why do you go your way alone?
(Sad river, sad river)
Take me along to find love I′ve never known
(Sad river, sad river)
Maybe there's someone waiting
Far on a distant shore

Sad river, make me know what I′m living for
Then I can promise we will be sad no more
(Sad river, sad river, hmm)
