drifters' song

yesterday while surfing the channels i found this song on HBO...it was playing during the end credits of a movie (the movie, as i later found out, was elizabethtown)...and i found it good. but it was the second song that swept me off my feet, as this song is one of my best loved ones. it is a drifter's song...and i know it is a very common song...very old, nothing special, nothing to be excited about bla bla bla...still...i feel this song is 'my' song, if you know what i mean. i am a drifter...i always was...may be that's why i can relate to this one so much and can get lost so easily in it. the song is moon river. was sung by god-knows-how-many artists..yet the most known one is the andy williams version. the one i heard last night was by patty griffin...i couldn't find it anywhere in the net and im not sure if i'll find it in the music stores here in dhaka. i asked dhrubo to search for it...may be he will send it...may be he wont. anyways, i am including here the original audrey hepburn version...the one she sang in the movie 'breakfast at tiffany's', the movie for which the song was originally written. i found the song in esnips...so song courtesy goes to that great site.
