Across the midnight
Wanderin westward by daylight
Take us and lead us to tomorrow
As fast as you come and can flow
River, you're windin
An unending rhythm
The sooner keep
Movin to warn him
The spirit that keeps
Us from sinking
Guide us from going astray
Point us a way
To a shoreline ahead
Through the mist and the fog
Of this valley of death
Too many years we have
Walked in a sleep
Now were awaken and ready fo flee
River, we hitchhikers
Beggin for mercy
Survive us from yesterdays curses
Don't damn us
Before you receive us
Were needin your face
And your trust
River, rising to hide Across the midnight Wanderin westward by daylight Take us and lead us to tomorrow As fast as you come and can flow River, you're windin An unending rhythm The sooner keep Movin to warn him The spirit that keeps Us from sinking Guide us from going astray Point us a way To a shoreline ahead Through the mist and the fog Of this valley of death Too many years we have Walked in a sleep Now were awaken and ready fo flee River, we hitchhikers Beggin for mercy Survive us from yesterdays curses Don't damn us Before you receive us Were needin your face And your trust Explain Request ×
