Goodnight to the river Goodnight to the harbor lights Goodnight to the city Goodnight will never be the same Because of you I can sit here drinking licorice tea And stare up at the golden moon Just picturing the way things used to be Hot sun in the middle of June You were there in your peach silk dress Laughing at me 'cause I was a mess A tall glass of lemonade Come on let's go lay down in the shade It really wasn't that long ago It really wasn't that long ago And I can sit here in my rocking chair Down by the riverside And I can think about your golden hair But I'll think about my foolish pride You were there beside me Lay down your head sweet rosemary Just you and me and a distant hound Just one kiss and the sun went down It really wasn't that long ago It really wasn't that long ago Let the city drag me down Like she just might do 'Til I'm scraping the ground With holes in my shoes With my head spinning round But I ain't going down not Because of you
