If you listen you can hear it call
Wailaree... (Wailaree...)
There is a river called 'the river of no return'
Sometimes it's peaceful and sometimes wild and free
Love is a traveler on the river of no return,
swept on forever to be lost in the stormy sea.
Wailaree...
I can hear the river call |: no return :| (|: no return :|)
Wailaree...
I can hear my lover call: Come to me (|: no return :|)
I lost my love on the river, and forever my heart will yearn
Gone, gone forever, down the river of no return.
|: Wailaree... :| He'll never return to me (|: no return :|)
