Across the River

I saw you walking, I heard you cry
I saw you leave, I womder why
Were they all, cruel to you
breal your heart, through and through
Put your head down in my arms
and tell me what went wrong
Across the river, arcoss the bay
people starving, every day
nearly naked, pale and wan
with crowds of people, looking on
Hearts and pounding, heads are still
as tears begin to fall, I’m dreaming
Baby, hold me, always let me know
Darling, hold me, never let me do
I saw you walking, I heard you cry
I saw you leave, I womder why
all those ages, all these years
as tears begin to fall, I’m dreaming
Baby, hold me, always let me know
Darling, hold me, never let me do
