Amazon, the Liffey and the shimmer and the ripple And the Volga and the Fergus and the Tagus and the Nile Uisce in the Shannon and the Chico Colorado Waikato, Rio Grande and the ripple in the tide
The gully and a gushing and an ebbing and a flowing Irrawaddy, Pilcomayo, Mississippi and the Lee Trickly-oozing in the Lagan, Orinoco and Zambezi Ubangi and the Congo and Mackenzie to the sea
A pooling and a pouring and a flooding and a flushing From the Purus to Parana, from the Tigris to the Thames Guadiana, Guadalquiver, Brahmaputra, Colorado And the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee and the Seine
Surging and a-showering and a-spouting and a-spilling In the Albany, the Oder and the Ural and the Ooze Dordogne and the Danube and Dnieper and the Dodder Paraguay and Tokachi and Shinano Vera Cruz
Amazon, the Liffey and the shimmer and the ripple And the Volga and the Fergus and the Tagus and the Nile
The heart will find a home, the ship will find a harbor A haven for the soul until the storms subside Ah but when the warmer wind blows And when the golden light glows We face into the dawn and float out on the tide
Fire may burn and the sky may thunder Heroes crumble and the sun may fall As the river circles on its endless journey I will follow you
Amazon, the Liffey and the shimmer and the ripple And the Volga and the Fergus and the Tagus and the Nile Uisce in the Shannon and the Chico Colorado Waikato, Rio Grande and the ripple in the tide
A pooling and a pouring and a flooding and a flushing From the Purus to Parana, from the Tigris to the Thames Guadiana, Guadalquiver, Brahmaputra, Colorado And the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee and the Seine
Amazon, the Liffey and the shimmer and the ripple And the Volga and the Fergus and the Tagus and the Nile
We sail into the sun, our hope is the horizon And just as we've begun, it seems that we've arrived Ah an everlasting journey A hungering and yearning Around the river runs and rushes through our lives
Fire may burn and the sky may thunder Heroes crumble and the sun may fall As the river circles on its endless journey I will follow you (3x)
