Johnny Mercer – By The River Sainte Marie lyrics

I left her by the River Sainte Marie,
We pledged our love until eternity.
Along the pebbled pathway from her door
We kissed and then, we kissed again,
And parted on the shore.
The Angelus rang out across the sea,
I saw her kneel and say a prayer for me.
When winter's gone, and spring comes on,
I'll meet her by the River Sainte Marie.
