Lyrics
- Out on the moonlit river, floats our birch canoe
Dearest, my heart’s a quiver, as I drift with you
Chorus
Drifting along and along, into the soft summer night
Moonlight and you and a song, fill the moments with delight
Drifting right into my heart, just as I knew you would do
Still, that’s the wonderful part, as I drift along with you
- This is a night to treasure, like a golden dream
Dear, may we know such pleasure, drifting down Life’s stream
