Now she sits by the riverside

Watching the waters glide by,

With a sigh

And the things she put faith in

Are ripples just waving her by

With a sigh



She sees lovers pass by with much more than a kiss

Ah this - little girl who had everything finds

she's nothing at all



Now the wind seems so cold

Seems all old as it laughs at her fears

And her tears

And as ducks swim away from her

Visions of past love appear

In her tears



She sees love in his face as she tells him to go,

And so - here's a girl who had everything now

she's Nothing at all



What could she do if she saw him now;

Now that he's gone she's losing

If she could see what she's seeing now

For sure she's more than just choosing



Now she sits by the riverside

Watching the waters glide by,

With a sigh

And the things she put faith in

Are ripples just waving her by,

With a sigh



She sees lovers pass by with much more than a kiss

Ah this - little girl who had everything finds

She's nothing at all
