As I recall,A love I once knew                                                  The heart of a young man,Yet to be bruised                                        Her eyes were green,the sky was blue                                              We fail in love that night,beneath the Chippewa moon                              (v-2)                                                                             Our love grew strong,I thought it grew true                                       Until that day at the rivers edge she broke the news                              (chorus)                                                                          Tears fell down,like the pouring rain                                             I could hardley breath,from all the pain                                          I'll never know just what caused it all                                           The day my tears fell, At Chippewa falls                                          (v-3)                                                                             You would think by now,I'd be ok                                                  That I'd found a new love, and moved on my way                                    Water under the bridge,some people say                                            But my Chippewa love ,keeps flowing to this very day.
