Lyr. Add: MOONLIGHT ON THE COLORADO
Music Robert A. King, lyrics by Billy Moll, 1930

CHORUS: Moonlight on the river Colorado,
How I wish that I were there with you.
As I sit and pine, each lonely shadow
Takes me back to days that we once knew.
We were to wed in harvest time, you said.
That's why I'm longing for you.
When it's moonlight on the Colorado,
I wonder if you're waiting for me too.

1. Each night I sit beside the campfire dreaming
In England's hills and dales across the sea,
And as I watch the embers softly gleaming,
I always picture in my memory: CHORUS

2. Sweetheart, do you recall the night we parted,
Beneath the moonlight on the river's shore?
Each time I see the moon, I'm broken-hearted,
Just longing to return to you once more. CHORUS
