[Verse:] Betty came by on her way Said she had a word to say About things today And fallen leaves Said she hadn’t heard the news Hadn’t had the time to choose A way to lose A cheap leaves Going to see the river man Going to tell him all I can About the plan for lilac time If he tells me all he knows About the way his river flows And all night shows in summer time Betty said she prayed today For the sky to blow away Or maybe stay She wasn’t sure But when she thought of summer rain Calling for mind again She lost the pain And stayed for more Going to see the river man Going to tell him all I can About the band on feeling free If he tells me all he knows About the way his river flows I don’t suppose it’s meant for me Oh… how they come and go (repeat)
