Audrey Landers - Little River lyrics

Sunny afternoon on the riverside Children playing games of seek-and-hid@ They throw the colored ball and they hide away But the devil stopped their harmless play Little Tommy try to catch the ball Tumbeled into the water and he lost control But Mary's little hand couldn't save the boy Pain is When you loose a friend and then she cried: Tell me Little river Tell me when a love has gone For him I wait forever Till the morning he will return Tell me Little river Why don't you give him back? Send him this little flower As long as I live he can't be dead Little children playing on the shore They don't talk about it anymore What had happened on that warm September day Sometimes in the wind you hear a prayer Tell me Little river Tell me when a love has gone.. . Tell me Little river Tell me when a love has gone.. . Tell me Little river Tell me when a love has gone.. .
