Love On the River

Story Behind The Song

I used to perform at this great little room in Providence, Rhode Island that is located on one of the many rivers that flow through or by this fantastic city...and one night i stepped outside on a cool early evening and sniffed the night and I saw two lovers kising under a dim street light.. I also saw a guy looking at them in a reflecting way and the song wrote itself.

Song Description

The song's mood is melancholy, not regretful or sad...reminising about a love and a night in the past that would be nice to do all over again..it's all about romance and the desire to recapture it...again and again...

TITLE: LOVE ON THE RIVER

VERSE:
I step outside on a cool, early evening and I sniff the night
My eyes shift to Lovers kissing under a dim street light
It's time like this that I wonder, Baby, what you're doing
Wanna call you up n'say "hello, drop what your doing"...
and away we'll go...

CHORUS
Down to the river ...we'll watch the sun go down
Watch the moon rise up and shine on the east side of town
Stare at the water as our hearts drift away
Fall in Love on the River...Like we did that day...
Oh yeah...Love on the River Baby...Love on The River

VERSE:
Sometimes people don't know what they've got when they get it then they let it go
Hearts get broken and words not spoken... love fails to grow
It's times like this that I wonder, Baby, What your doing..
Wanna call you up n'say "hello, drop what you're doing"...
and away we'll go....

CHORUS:
Down to the River we'll watch the sun go down
We'll watch the moon rise up and shine on the east side of town
Stare at the water as our hearts drift away...
Fall in Love on the River like we did that day...
Oh, Love on the River, Baby...Love on the River

INTERLUDE:
Love on the River, Baby..Love on the River

BRIDGE:
Love! Flow like a river
Love! Don't let it slip away
Come on Baby, "Hello? Hello?...come with me..."
and away we'll go..

CHORUS:
Down to the River we'll watch the sun go down
We'll watch the moon rise up and shine on the east side of twon.
Stare at the water as our hearts drift away..
Fall in Love On The River like we did that day...
Love on the river...love on the River
