The River of No Return

If you listen, you can hear it call,

Wailaree...Wailaree...

There is a river

called the River of No Return.

Sometimes it's peaceful

and sometimes wild and free.

Love is a traveler

on the River of No Return.

Swept on forever to be lost

in the stormy sea.

Wailaree...

I can hear the river call,

no return, no return...

Wailaree...

I can hear my lover call,

"Come to me."...

No return, no return...

I lost my love on the river

and forever my heart will yearn.

Gone, gone forever

down the River of No Return.

Wailaree...Wailaree...Wailaree...

You never return to me.

...No return, no return...
