The river is coming from the mountaintop She’s running through the city marching to the ocean No rhythm no rhymes like a bathroom sinking For the days for the nights forever… But I hear the river crying when I’m passing by ‘Cus the pollutions make her wounded and the dust make her blind No kids around here to swim no men around here to fish No hopes inside her heart to keep River River please stop your crying Don’t you know how much you mean to me? When the stars shine upon you and the birds fly above you The sky will always seem so blue When the time keeps fading and the trees keep growing The story will always end up pretty!! Please keep a little wish inside you heart ‘Cus someday I’ll make you beautiful She asks me how long have you stayed here I say for a while When the sunset is hiding and calling up the night I sit down by her side with the guitar on my back She starts to sing the winter serenade And I said…. River River please stop your crying Don’t you know how much you mean to me? When the stars shine upon you and the birds fly above you The sky will always seem so blue ‘Cus someday I’ll make you ‘Cus someday I’ll make you ‘Cus someday I’ll make you beautiful River River please stop your crying Don’t you know how much you mean to me? When the stars shine upon you and the birds fly above you The sky will always seem so blue The sky will always seem so blue
