Red River Girl

My heart belongs to the Red River girl, with her smile and her eyes ever bright. Her long hair in a Red River curl, how I long to be holding her tight. I know by her kind eyes of blue that I won't let her out of my sight, and I hope she will always be true, but first, she must decide to swipe right.

Hello David, Just like Tom I thought about Red River Valley. I also saw the movie Red River. You can turn this into a song and I just loved the twist at the end, which I was not anticipating. Spring Blessings, My Friend, Daniel

Thanks Daniel. Watching that movie and hearing those songs, it just seems like romance has a different look and feel nowadays.

Really - wow. Yeah, great song. I never recorded it, but I played it (albeit, not skillfully) on a recorder. Strangely enough, I was recently watching an old Western, "Red River", and the title made me think of the song. Another, sort of similar song that I like is called "Colorado Trail".
