(from the album 'By The Time I Get To Phoenix')
(as recorded by Glen Campbell)
On a street in some big city
Lives the girl I love so well
She left me for another
Now there's nothing much to tell
As I try to fit my life
In a different mold I find
That love is a lonesome river
Running through a lonesome mind
I took a plane to back when
I was just a child at play
But time has sure changed this old town
It's not the same today
As I try to meet old friends
None do I find
Cause love is a lonesome river
Running through a lonesome mind
(Musical break)
There's trees along this river
That are overgrown with vines
There's pools along this river
Where the sun will never shine
As I look into my heart
And count my loss I find
That love is a lonesome river
Running through a lonesome mind
Yes, love is a lonesome river
Running through a lonesome mind
