Douglas Closson: Lyrics

Half moon across the water drifting behind clouds
Now I miss my sailor’s daughter and nights of love
Beneath the island showers

Your green eyes in the morning
Reach down into my soul Warm feelings growing in me
Green river flow, Green river flow

Through winters that we’ve both known
When the sun stayed gone too long
The night’s were chill and deathly
And the air was empty of song

Your green eyes in the morning
Reach down into my soul
Warm feelings growing in me
Green river flow, Green river flow

Summer evenings on the back porch
Cool breeze blowing your hair
Our love burned like a bright torch
Full of light and things to share

Your green eyes in the morning
Reach down into my soul
Warm feelings growing in me
Green river flow, Green river flow
