What I love most about river
is:
You can't step in the same
river twice
The water's always changing,
always flowing
But people, I guess can't live
like that
We all must pay a price
To be safe, we lose our chance
of ever knowing
What's around the river bend
Waiting just around the river
bend
I look once more
Just around the river bend
Beyond the shore
Where the gulls fly free
Don't know what for
What I dream the day might
send
Just around the river bend
For me...
Coming for me...
I feel it there beyond those
trees
Or right behind these waterfalls
Can I ignore that sound of
distant drumming
For a handsome sturdy husband
Who builds handsome sturdy
walls
And never dream that something
might be coming?
Just around the river bend
Just around the river bend
I look once more
Just around the river bend
Beyond the shore
Somewhere past the sea
Don't know what for
Why do all my dreams extend
Just around the river bend?
Just around the river bend...
Should I choose the smoothest
course
Steady as the beating drum?
Should I marry Kocoum?
Is all my dreaming at an end?
Or do you still wait for me
Dream Giver
Just around the river bend?
