Moon River
Wider than a mile
I'm crossin' you in style
Some day
Old dream maker
You heart breaker
Wherever your goin'
I'm goin' your way
Two drifters
Off to see the world
There's such a lot of world
To see
We're after the same
Rainbow's end
Waitin' round the bend
My huckleberry friend
Moon River
And me
