Basey River

By the banks of the never-ending Basey River My girl sat quiet when I left her Believing that someday I'll be back home And by the riverbanks, she'll never be alone Far across the blue water Halfway through the blue Samar sky Over hills and blue green mountains I'm going far and far I may fly high on a plane Board the ferry, ride the train I can be anywhere my feet take me But I'll come home, oh my dearest Daphne And if I ever lose my way I'll just sail, another day The old Basey River was never ending But my side of the river ends Where Daphne is waiting I may fly high on a plane Board the ferry, ride the train I can be anywhere my feet take me But I'll come home to my dearest Daphne And if I ever lose my way I'll just sail for one more day The old Basey River was never ending But my side of the river ends Where Daphne is waiting But my side of the river ends Where Daphne is waiting
