river so wide

if we can cross at the place that divides us. cross the river

the river so wide

if we can smother the pain that's inside us

deny the demons that wait bu our side

we can find

find the light

our nights are filled with the light of the same moon

we share the comfort of the same stars. our days are bright with the light of the same sun

that don't matter

can't you see what we are

what we are

what we become?

keep our sights on the way ahead

don't look back

it won't help us now. the storm we left so far behind

seems a dark memory that starts to fade

but till we see the light we will not be safe. we all sink or swin in the same ocean

break our skin and we will bleed

our minutes pass with the same motion

we face the same danger

we share the same needs

we're all the same

you and me. keep our sights on the way ahead

don't look back

that won't help us now. upstream

the river gets too wide

so we must build that bridge right here

'cos if we wait we will not reach the other side. see under that clear blue sky

the winds of change are blowing hard and long

and they'll not stop to rest 'cos the change is gonna come

our nights are filled with the light of the same moon

we share the comfort of the same stars. our days are bright with the light of the same sun

that don't matter

can't you see what we are

what we are

what we become?

keep our sights on the way ahead

don't look back

it won't help us now. 'cos upstream the river gets too wide

and if we don't build that bridge right here

right now

you know we'll never ever reach the other side.
