| 作词 : Strehli | |
| (Al Strehli) | |
| I remember you a-tellin' me don't clutch your rose | |
| Don't mourn the sunset and I suppose | |
| If I hear the river moanin' it's just the way I'm feelin' | |
| The river's not complaining, oh no oh no no no | |
| And the very next day we woke before the dawn | |
| We found our way by the ramblin' river | |
| And we had no dream we just lived one | |
| I the keeper of the mountain, you the morning flower, uh huh uh huh huh huh | |
| (Chorus) | |
| There was no reason to go and I never claimed to know | |
| And these (and these), these ain't teardrops (these ain't teardrops) | |
| That ain't the river (ain't the river), just a-moanin' (just a-moanin') | |
| The river's not complainin', oh no oh no no no | |
| When I spoke big words you just let them fly away | |
| Blue paper birds on a summer's day | |
| And I took you by the hand, knew that you would understand | |
| I the keeper of the mountain, you the morning flower, uh huh uh huh huh huh | |
| (Chorus) |
