[Chorus] From that cold November I’ve learned so much more Don’t you see, she wears a diamond ring But I kinda like the river low Soft and low
In my memories I’m silent In my daydreams I am bold I leave tender notes and markings where I go And I’ve never been pretending It's the evenings when I lie I’ve been silently admiring The simple way she wears her hair
If it's a question of my loyalty You never have to worry I’ll be with you wherever you may go
There’s a calmness in my footsteps In the new lines of my hands There are portraits on the wall that need explaining
And the evenings are quiet When I’ve finally broken through Getting color in the nighttime When it's not that way
If it's a question of my loyalty You never have to worry I’ll be with you wherever you may go Sitting safely in your memory Easy for you to carry Take me with you wherever you may go
[Chorus] From that cold November I’ve learned so much more Don’t you see, they wear diamond rings But I kinda like the river low Soft and low
