From the forest to the ocean
Through the mountains and the hills
Your waters know the story
And the secret they hold still
It's the secret of my lover
How I need him by my side
My love was born a lumberjack
And he's drifting o-on the tide
Blue River, Blue River
Won't you bring him back
My lumberjack to-oo me
The mountains tall, they know it all
Our love was deep and strong
Blue River won't you tell me now
The reason why he's gone
Just as sweethearts we would wander
Through the tall pines hand and hand
And write our names together
With kisses in the sand
Even though he's gone I love him
While there's north winds in the pines
And always keep a shining light
In this broken hear-eart of mine
Blue River, Blue River
Won't you bring him back
My lumberjack to-oo me
The mountains tall, they know it all
Our love was deep and strong
Blue River won't you tell me now
The reason why he's gone
Even though he's gone I love him
While there's north winds in the pines
And always keep a shining light
In this broken heart of mine...
