If you meet me by the river   I'll tell you what's forever   If you hold me there forever   I remember dying   I remember dying   But as I drift to sleep   When I just can't yet   Twenty thousand sheep   Some I will forget   Looking up as if   I was still awake   Looking up as if   You were still   If you meet me by the river   I'll tell you what's forever   I remember dying   'Cause I remember dying   By the river   By the river   'Cause I remember dying
