River Songtext
von Dave Stringer
River Songtext
River, where will I be
When the ashes have scattered and gone?
Forever the music
And the mystery
That splashes in water moves on
River, in thy melody
A voice is laughing and crying
For all I have been
And all I will be
In the course of living and dying
In this moment
The current is flowing fast
But it holds on to nothing
As it′s going past
When I reach my limit
With travels infinite
The empty places to fill
I slow down a minute
And look at what's in it
′Til everything seems to stand still
River, in my memory
I drift in the shimmering sun
Deliver me please
From my miseries
When all of my dreaming is done
River, is it my destiny
To journey back where I've begun
Through the geography
Of my heart to the sea
Where everything flows into one
In this moment
The future hurtles toward the past
To vanish and return
Going nowhere fast
When I reach my limit
With travels infinite
The empty places to fill
I slow down a minute
And look at what's in it
′Til everything seems to stand still
When the ashes have scattered and gone?
Forever the music
And the mystery
That splashes in water moves on
River, in thy melody
A voice is laughing and crying
For all I have been
And all I will be
In the course of living and dying
In this moment
The current is flowing fast
But it holds on to nothing
As it′s going past
When I reach my limit
With travels infinite
The empty places to fill
I slow down a minute
And look at what's in it
′Til everything seems to stand still
River, in my memory
I drift in the shimmering sun
Deliver me please
From my miseries
When all of my dreaming is done
River, is it my destiny
To journey back where I've begun
Through the geography
Of my heart to the sea
Where everything flows into one
In this moment
The future hurtles toward the past
To vanish and return
Going nowhere fast
When I reach my limit
With travels infinite
The empty places to fill
I slow down a minute
And look at what's in it
′Til everything seems to stand still
