Lyrics
Verse 1 (male)
On the right bank of Rio Negro,
Near Santa Isabel I stay.
Rain is falling on the water,
Silver tears in skies of gray.
Verse 2 (female)
Every drop becomes a rhythm,
Every breeze a gentle song.
In the silence of this moment,
I can feel where I belong.
Chorus (duet)
Oh, the river sings to me,
A melody so true.
In the rain I find my peace,
And my soul returns to you.
By the Rio, by the rain,
Love is calling out my name.
Verse 3 (male)
Through the jungle, echoes linger,
Soft guitar in distant air.
Every note becomes a promise,
Every sound a whispered prayer.
Verse 4 (female)
Clouds may cover light above me,
But the music sets me free.
On this shore I hear forever,
In its song you’re here with me.
Chorus (duet)
Oh, the river sings to me,
A melody so true.
In the rain I find my peace,
And my soul returns to you.
By the Rio, by the rain,
Love is calling out my name.
Bridge (female → male)
When the storm begins to fade,
Still the melody remains.
On this river’s endless edge,
Love will guide me through the rain.
Final Chorus (duet)
Oh, the river sings to me,
A melody so true.
In the rain I find my peace,
And my soul returns to you.
By the Rio, by the rain,
Love is calling out my name.
Outro (soft)
On the Rio Negro’s shore,
I’ll be singing evermore.
On the right bank of Rio Negro,
Near Santa Isabel I stay.
Rain is falling on the water,
Silver tears in skies of gray.
Verse 2 (female)
Every drop becomes a rhythm,
Every breeze a gentle song.
In the silence of this moment,
I can feel where I belong.
Chorus (duet)
Oh, the river sings to me,
A melody so true.
In the rain I find my peace,
And my soul returns to you.
By the Rio, by the rain,
Love is calling out my name.
Verse 3 (male)
Through the jungle, echoes linger,
Soft guitar in distant air.
Every note becomes a promise,
Every sound a whispered prayer.
Verse 4 (female)
Clouds may cover light above me,
But the music sets me free.
On this shore I hear forever,
In its song you’re here with me.
Chorus (duet)
Oh, the river sings to me,
A melody so true.
In the rain I find my peace,
And my soul returns to you.
By the Rio, by the rain,
Love is calling out my name.
Bridge (female → male)
When the storm begins to fade,
Still the melody remains.
On this river’s endless edge,
Love will guide me through the rain.
Final Chorus (duet)
Oh, the river sings to me,
A melody so true.
In the rain I find my peace,
And my soul returns to you.
By the Rio, by the rain,
Love is calling out my name.

On the Rio Negro’s shore,
I’ll be singing evermore.
