Sunlight river, such a peaceful sight
flowing through the centuries
drifting through the night
swans on the water, birds in the trees
flowers on the water's edge
swaying in the breeze

CHORUS
How I love to go back
yes I love to go back in my mind
to those sweet summer days
in a world I've left behind
I don't need a photograph
I can see all I want in my heart
you can come with me if you want
it's really not far away
just close your eyes and picture in your mind

sunlight on the water, boats sliding through
an afternoon before you
with nothing you must to do
perfect peace and harmony
no distant roaring sound
an ache deep in side you
from the wonder all around
