Slow Black River

　　Lost my watch, watch and chain

　　But time's not lost

　　This time we walk together beside the slow black river

　　Water-walking over mud

　　You whisper something

　　Something good in my ear

　　So I stop so I can hear:

　　"Darling, I'm the one to blame

　　I threw your watch and chain

　　To where I don't know

　　Inside the tall grass meadow

　　You'll forget, forget in time

　　Remember this:

　　Your hand in mine forever

　　Beside the slow black river"

　　Lost my watch, watch and chain, to her today

　　But time it has no meaning

　　When her and me are walking

　　Darling, I'm the one to blame

　　I love you still

　　And timeless now forever

　　Together by the river
