I Let a Tear Fall in the River lyrics

[Verse 1]
I let a tear fall in the river
And watched my teardrop sail off to sea
To find my love and bring him back to me

We shared a dream here by the river
My dream is gone and I'm all alone
Alone without a dream to call my own

[Bridge]
Flow, you river, flow
Blow, you breezes, blow, across the blue
Sail, my teardrop, sail, out beyond the pail
Seldom I've been through

[Verse 2]
I let a tear fall in the river
And watched my teardrop sailing away
Please find my love and bring him back someday

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Flow, you river, flow
Blow, you breezes, blow, across the blue
Sail, my teardrop, sail, out beyond the pail
Seldom I've been through
[Verse 2]
Oh, I let a tear fall in the river
And watched my teardrop sailing away
Please find my love and bring him back someday

[Outro]
Oh (or A)-, little teardrop sailing away
Please find my love and bring him back someday
I let a tear, I let a tear fall in the river
