Meet me by the river
By the place where we first went for dinner
Underneath the pillar
When I bought you flowers in the rain
Feed me by the liver
For all my woes have left me thinner
I am a sinner
And I know my days have aged
Still, teach me a beginner
I might not be the best listener
But meet me by the river
When I bought you flowers in the rain
For all the nights that linger
And for all the nights I can't remember
I can't hold my liquor
And there have been been some wines that left me bitter
But of all my gold and silver
There is none but you who make me richer
So meet me by the river
I bought you flowers in the rain
In the rain
