Sweet Music Roll On
Down by O'Connell street one summers evening I meet a young woman, it was our first meeting Crossed over the bridge and down by the river By the strawberry beds I found that I knew her She called me her darling man We spend a few hours and we drank a few glasses We danced at the bar ignoring their glances Ev'ryone knew her name and they knew by my face With a beer in my hand and her arm round my waist Calling me her darling man The river runs deep, sweet music roll on So the times are long gone, sweet music roll on Then came the morning and my boat was leaving She smiled as she said to me: "No point in grieving" Ev'ryonce in a while when I hear music playing I remember her smile and I hear her voice saying: Calling me her darling man The river runs deep, sweet music roll on So the times are long gone, sweet music roll on Aus Songtexte Mania
