Down by the river we did go <br /> hand in hand in a lovers <br /> hold <br />Momma and daddy said <br />this is a love that can not grow <br />and he must go <br />But momma an daddy i love him so. <br />you stay with him then you must go <br />. don't make <br />me chose for i love you too <br />Down by the river we did go hand <br />in hand in a lovers hold <br />Momma and daddy you dont know, <br /> His love for me is pure as gold <br />Theres something you two <br /> must know. <br />Down by the river we did go hand <br /> in hand in a lover hold <br />Raining so hard we could hardly see <br />We slow danced by the rivers edge <br /> He said no other could love you like i <br />Then i slipped an fell and the river <br /> took me away <br />I fought the river but the river won <br /> Then a bright light shined <br />Saw an angel reaching for me <br />Momma an daddy you dont know <br />When my eyes open this is what i seen <br />.Had been pulled <br />from river laid me upon the shore <br /> Blanket of white feathers were <br />keeping me warm <br />As he stood with tear filled eyes <br /> A bright light shine <br />And upond his back were angel wings <br />.He said <br />God sent me here to love you <br />Momma and daddy you dont know. <br />My choice is with him now i go <br />For oneday i'll have my own angel wings <br />And will never let him go. <br />Momma and daddy you dont know <br />Down <br />by the river we did go hand in hand <br />in a lovers hold <br />down by the river <br /> we did go <br /> <br /> <br /> written by <br />copyrights jackie kirby 2/3/05<br /><br />Jackie Kirby<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/down-by-the-river/
