The wind was blowing through your hair The moon was shinin' on your face You looked like a picture sittin' there And time stood still there in that place The water was singing And our hearts were beating fast Two high school lovers Thinkin' it would always last Down by the riverside On a warm summer night We gave into passion For the very first time We fumbled with love Till we got it right And we found heaven Down by the riverside ♪ Now you're nothin' but a ghost That still haunts my memory And you're always waiting there When I go walkin' through my dreams There's no happy ending But I know our love will last Cause when I close my eyes You always take me back Down by the riverside On a warm summer night We gave into passion For the very first time We fumbled with love Till we got it right And we found heaven Down by the riverside On a warm summer night We gave into passion For the very first time We fumbled with love Till we got it right And we found heaven Down by the riverside
