LYRICS:
Sunny afternoon on a riverside
Children playing games of seek-and-hide
They throw the colored ball and they hide away
But the devil stopped their harmless play
Little Tommy tried to catch the ball
He tumbeled into the water and he lost control
But Mary’s little hand couldn’t save the boy
Pain is when you lose a friend and she cried:
Tell me, little river
Tell me where my love has gone
For him I’ll wait forever
Till the morning he will return
Tell me, little river
Why don’t you give him back?
Send him this little flower
As long as I live, he can’t be dead
Little children playing on the shore
They don’t talk about it anymore
What had happened on that warm September day
Sometimes in the wind you hear a prayer:
Tell me, little river
Tell me where my love has gone
For him I’ll wait forever
Till the morning he will return
Tell me, little river
Why don’t you give him back?
Send him this little flower
As long as I live, he can’t be dead
