Kershaw Nik Bogart Lyrics

Bogart Lyrics

Where the Murray meets the Darling lies a sleepy border town
The grapevines
were in season laden to the ground
On the gate a rusty sing pickers apply
within
From the cool of her verandah she watched him wander in
All
through the harvest season in the long hot afternoons
They gathered grapes
together their love began to bloom
And somehow he had touched her and like
the clinging of the vines
Their lives became entangled their hearts became
entwined
CHORUS
  Where the Murray meets the Darling by the water slow
and brown
  In a secret valley he laid a blanket down
  It was there
beside the river he pledged his love that day
  Where the Murray meets the
Darling she gave her heart away
When the harvest time was over and the
leaves began to fall
They planned to travel northward it was time for moving
on
But as the leaves were falling ne night he slipped away
Her love had
been forsaken the vines lay stark and grey
CHORUS
Where the Murray meets
the Darling she gave her heart away
