Текст (слова) песни: Townes Van Zandt - Niles river blues
by Townes Van Zandt
On the banks of the Niles I courted my love I walked with her soft as a mournin` dove I loved her true I swear I still do and now she`s gone without me I walk by the banks and give the Lord thanks that I had the chance to court her I don`t know why he flew her away I don`t know why I`m left here The Niles runs cold and clear as cold and clear as my tears I`ll never forget, I`ll never regret those days on the beautiful Niles Her name was Diane her beautiful hands were soft as the pearls in the water I looked in her eyes they were blue as the skies and now I`ve gone and left her I`ll follow her down the way to the river follow her now, now and forever she`s my one and only smile on the beautiful banks of the Niles Someday soon `neath the light of the moon when the sun and the rain shine together I`ll meet her down where the waters flow and continue to flow forever Down on the banks of the beautiful Niles I wonder what I can be thinking down on the banks of that beautiful river I`ll wander, look for her forever I`ll wander, look for her forever
