Cameron Daddo Watching The River Go By Lyrics

Watching The River Go By Lyrics

As I write this letter; I can hear the river
Runnin` by the back door, whispering  a dream
You`re somewhere in the night sky
high above the ocean
Flying across the dateline
I hope you get some sleep
As you move, as you fly, think of me watching
the river go by
I`m no good at saying goodbye, so hello
from the river and I
I`m not an easy father, I never have been
I`m a little like this country- my story runs deep
I used to tie your laces, carry you on my shoulders
I held you after bad dreams, and rocked you back to sleep
So as you move, as you fly, think of me watching
the river go by
I`n no good at saying goodbye
so hello fromn the river and I
You`re so far away making a life of your own
I`m amazed by what you`ve done
You`re so far away in a world I`ll never know
I`m amazed by you my son
So as you move, as you fly, think of me
watching the river go by
I`m no good at saying goodbye
