oh i thrill to her kisses and she thrills to mine

run softly while she sleeps and dreams for a time

cause she dreams of tomorrow when she’ll be my wife

and i pray that as peaceful as you is our life

C F C
and if your murmuring soothes me till i’m sleeping too

run softly blue river we’ll both dream with you

( run softly blue river my darlin’s asleep run softly blue river run cool and deep )

oh i thrill to her kisses . . .

( run softly blue river my darlin’s asleep run softly blue river run cool and deep )

( run softly blue river my darlin’s asleep run softly blue river run cool and deep )
