Let’s walk down to theriver today,

just you and I, side by side…

Let’s stop along the way

and in each other our thoughts confide.

Let’s sit at the waters edgeand feel the coolness wit out toes;

Let’s wander along the outer ledge

and find out where the river goes.

After we’ve walked for the longest mile,

we’ll stop for a time in the calm of a glade…

We’ll rest for a little while

and gather ourselves in the cool shade;

If you grow tired and should sleep

by your side I’ll stay,

At the waters edge I’ll wash your feet

and watch I’ll keep throughout the day.

When the day s done and you should wake,

I’ll be there and your hand I’ll take;

Together we’ll walk back the way we came

After today, life will never be the same, again.
