River Walk

You will see him on the River Walk
Moving slowly as the people rush
All up and down,
Taking pictures.
But they never seem to catch
The view he's seeing.
"it was here that I first saw her smile
As we walked along the old canal.
It was there I stole a first kiss
Soft and sweet.
I can see the night so clear
And so complete."

Chorus
And I come here everyday
And I see her.
And we dance the night away
Or we just sit here
Holding hands under the rain
Sharing love before the pain
Would tear us down
And take her love form me.

He seems to be so far away
As a mariachi band plays
Las Mananitas
On the plaza.
And he smiles right through his tears
And sings so clearly.
"Wake up my dear, the dawn is come.
The birds all sing, the moon is down.
How lovely is the morning when I meet you.
I have two stars in my hands
The first to greet you."

Chorus
And I come here everyday
And I see her.
And we dance the night away
Or we just sit here
Holding hands under the rain
Sharing love before the pain
Would tear us down
And take her love form me.

You can see him on the River Walk
Moving slowly as the people rush
All up and down
Taking pictures.
