lyrics

Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you,
Away, you rolling river.
Oh Shenandoah, I long to hear you,
Away, we’re bound away, across the wide Missouri.
Oh Shenandoah, I’ll never leave you,
Away, you rolling river.
Oh Shenandoah, I’ll not deceive you,
Away, we’re bound away, across the wide Missouri.
‘Tis seven long years since last I’ve seen you,
Away, you rolling river.
And seventy more I’ll promise to you,
Away, we’re bound away, across the wide Missouri.

The water is wide, I cannot cross o’er,
And neither have I wings to fly,
Give me a boat that can carry two,
And both shall row, my love and I.
Where love is planted, there it grows,
It spreads its branches, like a tree,
Love blooms in sweetness, like a rose,
With such a grace you’ll never see.
Oh love is handsome and love is kind,
And love’s a jewel, when first it’s new,
As love lives on, it grows refined,
Like the blade of green, in the morning dew.
