Lyrics

Verse 1:
There's a river down by the old oak tree,
It whispers like the wind when it calls to me.
I remember those nights when the stars would shine,
And you'd pull me close as the world unwinds.

Chorus:
By the midnight river, where our love ran deep,
The water flows with secrets that we still keep.
The moon's reflection, like a dream that lingers,
In the midnight river, slipped right through our fingers.

Verse 2:
The fireflies danced on the edge of the shore,
As we carved our names in the heart of the core.
But seasons changed, and the tides pulled away,
Now it's just me and the river, lost in yesterday.

(Chorus)
By the midnight river, where our love ran deep,
The water flows with secrets that we still keep.
The moon's reflection, like a dream that lingers,
In the midnight river, slipped right through our fingers.

Bridge:
Time keeps rolling like the river's song,
But the memory of you just keeps rolling on.
I hear your voice in the current's cry,
Like a ghost in the water that won't say goodbye.

(Chorus - Repeat)
By the midnight river, where our love ran deep,
The water flows with secrets that we still keep.
The moon's reflection, like a dream that lingers,
In the midnight river, slipped right through our fingers.

Outro:
Now I sit by the shore, as the night falls again,
Watching the midnight river, just like back then.
