"I've got a river for a wife boy And the soul of all mankind I've got a river for a wife boy"
"Hurry up" he screams, from the shivers of his boat And he says "you're the first who came smiling by the shore With no coins and no love" - still he howls me: "I'm telling you for the last time, I'm coming back again"
"And the soul of all mankind I've got a river for a wife boy And the soul of all mankind and those who pray I've got a river for a wife"
"Step inside" he moans "you will never be so lonely Like me you'll wait closely by the open door And hear the steps of time creeping gently to your side Maybe then you'll know why I scream it loud"
I've got a river for a wife boy And the soul of all mankind I've got a river for a wife boy And the soul of all mankind and those who pray I've got a river for a wife boy And the soul of all mankind
I've got a river for a wife boy And the soul of all mankind and those who pray I've got a river for a wife boy
