But time's not lost
This time we walk together beside the slow black river
Water-walking over mud
You whisper something
Something good in my ear
So I stop so I can hear:
"Darling, I'm the one to blame
I threw your watch and chain
To where I don't know
Inside the tall grass meadow
You'll forget, forget in time
Remember this:
Your hand in mine forever
Beside the slow black river"
Lost my watch, watch and chain, to her today
But time it has no meaning
When her and me are walking
Darling, I'm the one to blame
I love you still
And timeless now forever
Together by the river
Lost my watch, watch and chain But time's not lost This time we walk together beside the slow black river Water-walking over mud You whisper something Something good in my ear So I stop so I can hear: "Darling, I'm the one to blame I threw your watch and chain To where I don't know Inside the tall grass meadow You'll forget, forget in time Remember this: Your hand in mine forever Beside the slow black river" Lost my watch, watch and chain, to her today But time it has no meaning When her and me are walking Darling, I'm the one to blame I love you still And timeless now forever Together by the river Explain Request ×
