Verse 1

Well, not so long ago,
I had the sweetest dream
I will never forget the feeling,
People walking hand in hand
Will you come
with me, come

To the other side of the river
Where peace you will find,

Reach the other side, will we ever
Will you come
With me, come

Verse 2

I’m awake, but
my dream is still here,

In my heart my soul and mind
And I hope this dream we can share,

‘Cause your heart beats just like mine
Will you come with me, come
To the other side of the river
Where peace you will find,

Reach the other side, will we ever
Will you come
with me, come
Will you come,
Come with me, come
Will you come
With me, come

Verse 1
As the blackbird in the spring
'neath the willow tree
Sat and piped I heard him sing

Praising Aura Lee.

Chorus
Aura Lea! Aura Lea! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 2
Take my heart and take my ring
I give my all to thee
Take me for eternity
Dearest Aura Lee!

Chorus
Aura Lea! Aura Lea! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 3
In her blush the rose was born
'twas music when she spoke
In her eyes the light of morn
Sparkling seemed to break.

Chorus
Aura Lee! Aura Lee! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 4
Aura Lee the bird may flee
The willow' golden hair
Then the wintry winds may be
Blowing ev'rywhere.

Chorus
Aura Lee! Aura Lee! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 5
Yet if thy blue eyes I see
Gloom will soon depart
For to me sweet Aura Lee
Is sunshine to the heart.

Chorus
Aura Lee! Aura Lee! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.
