Walkin' By the River

Walkin' By the River - Ella Fitzgerald

Written by：Robert Sour/Una Mae Carlisle

There's dew upon the ground

And not a soul in sight

I'm walkin' by the river

Cause I'm meeting someone there tonight

I hear a distant sound

I see a far off light

I'm walkin' by the river

'Cause I'm meeting someone there tonight

The murmuring waters say

There's no time to delay

So hurry on your way my friend

If you don't get there soon

There may not be a moon

To guide you to that happy end

My heart is riding high

My blues have taken flight

I'm walkin' by the river

'Cause I'm meeting someone there tonight

My heart is riding high

My blues have taken flight

I'm walkin' by the river

'Cause I'm meeting someone there tonight
