River

I see the people going down
The wind is blowing in the leaves
It’s coming to seek us
Far down the river

And I see the shadows falling down
Down on lawns and down on me
And the ships sound their sirens
Far down the river

Far down the river
Far down the river

And when the Sun bursts through the sky
With all the colours pouring down
We will not fear the fireworks

Beyond the rainbow
Beyond the rainbow

I see a white boat coming
Oh Lord
We’re waiting in this port
We’re leaving on this night
Under joyful stars
And the sailors are dancing
All night long

I see a white boat coming
Oh Lord
This time we chase the Moon
This time it is our guide
From sky to sky
And the stars are dancing
All night long

I see the people walking by
The wind is whispering in the trees
It is with us forever
Far down the river

Far down the river
Far down the river

And may the whole world end tonight
You dive a last time in my arms
We’re the lovers in the fireworks

Beyond the rainbow
Beyond the rainbow

I see a white boat coming
Oh Lord
We’re waiting in this port
We’re leaving on this night
Under joyful stars
And the sailors are dancing
All night long

I see a white boat coming
Oh Lord
This time we chase the Moon
This time it is our guide
From sky to sky
And the stars are dancing
All night long

Far down the river
Far down the river
