"Abbie's Song" lyrics

"Abbie's Song"

Oh, river with your water so clear
I can see straight to the bottom
While you stand so still
No, river with its beauty you've found
And you act just like a mirror
With your sun sinking down
You act just like a mirror
With your sun sinking down

I'm so selfish
Won't you forgive me my haste
But I hope you last forever
At least all of my days

No, river with your islands so green
Well I think they are the prettiest
That I've ever seen

No, river with your water so calm
And I will not forget you wherever I roam
Oh, I will not forget you wherever I roam

I'm so selfish
Won't you forgive me my haste
But I hope you last forever
Or at least all of my days
At least all of my days

So I will drink the whiskey
And you will drink the rain
At least all of my days
At least all of my days
At least all of my days
