Birds in the trees And a song on the breeze Blue River, why are you blue Light of the Moon And the starlight in view Must they bring sadness to you Must you sing of days gone by Must you always sigh Tell me why your song is sad, never glad Blue River, Blue River Do you hold the memory Of a vanished dream Sing to me of lips Ive pressed and caressed Blue River, Blue River Till I saw my hopes Go drifting down your stream Can we both forget the night Summer night, in a little canoe When her blue eyes lost their light As we whispered adieu When I hear your lonesome song Somethings wrong Blue River, Blue River Maybe its because Im just as blue as you Tell me why your song is sad, never glad Blue River, Blue River Do you hold the memory Of a vanished dream, dream, vanished dream Sing to me of lips Ive pressed and caressed Blue River Till I saw my hopes Go drifting down your stream Can we both forget the night Summer night, in a little canoe When her blue eyes lost their light And we whispered adieu, I said adieudieudieu When I hear your lonesome song Somethings wrong Blue River Maybe its because Im just as blue as you
