Take me back to the Green River Let my troubles roll on down That's when my baby's love was still around Take me when the leaves are falling How plain was the picture in my mind Autumn leaves were paint in the water My memories take me to the Green River Love was shining in your eyes How I long for us to return To the love we had back then Darling, I'll be waiting a lifetime How I miss the sound of the water Gently flowing past the trees For you to take me back again How I miss your tender kisses The way you once loved me
