The wind was blowing through your hair
The moon was shinin' on your face
It looked like a picture sittin' there
And time stood still there in that place
The water was singing
And our hearts were beating fast
Two high school lovers
Thinkin' it would always last
Down by the riverside
On a warm summer night
We gave into passion
For the very first time
We fumbled with love
Till we got it right
And we found heaven
Down by the riverside
Now you're nothin' but a ghost
That still haunts my memory
And you're always waiting there
When I go walkin' through my dreams
There's no happy ending
But I know our love will last
Cause when i close my eyes
You always take me back
Down by the riverside
On a warm summer night
We gave into passion
For the very first time
We fumbled with love
Till we got it right
And we found heaven
Down by the riverside
On a warm summer night
We gave into passion
For the very first time
We fumbled with love
Till we got it right
And we found heaven
Down by the riverside
