The River Lyrics
Legend has is there's a place
A place of transition change
With people all around joing hands
Singing the song of overcomers
How they withstood Big Brother's hand
Peace and joy life's luxuries
Can't compare to mysteries
Beyond what any eyes ever see
Further than Jersey to Francisco
Further than LA to Iran , Iran
As we stood on the edge of the river expecting to fly
As we stood on the edge of the river expecting to fly
Cherry plants and tambourines
Iridescent figurines
And a vintage clock with blue painted hands
Tells of a time when life was simple
Tells of a time when folks used to lend helping hands
Taxicabs and hoola hoops
Feel like I could run through troops
And I feel like I could leap over walls
Once upon a time a broken vessel
Now I am filled with immortality
As we stood on the edge of the river expecting to fly
As we stood on the edge of the river expecting to fly
As the Kingdom sings
The Throne changed from red to green
As the horses bow and drink from the spring
Oh, we made it over
Spread my wings and I'll fly
So long cruel old world goodbye
As we stood on the edge of the river expecting to fly
As we stood on the edge of the river expecting to fly
As we stood on the edge of the river expecting to fly
As we stood on the edge of the river expecting to fly
As we stood on the edge of the river expecting to fly
As we stood on the edge of the river expecting to fly
As we stood on the edge of the river expecting to fly
As we stood on the edge of the river........
