River of life
 Rain was your birth
 Gathered deep (Search)
 Beneath the earth (and seep)
 Hollow stone
 Issue and flow
 Virgin stream
 Meander free
 It's a long way to the sea

 Caves and canyons
 Stark prison walls
 Swirl and hurl you
 From white cascading falls
 Across the plain
 Sweep your course
 Stretch your hair (River roll)
 Follow your star

 There's a city
 There's a bridge
 Ships and barges
 Dark rusty hearts (Feed cranes along your banks)
 Waste and poison
 Cloy where once men drank
 Forget the pain
 From rain to rain
 Journey's end
 Is surely not far...
