Hear the river flowing
Doesn't it run for everyone?
The oceans rise and fall
The moon will reappear
Children of the earth
One day your souls will fly (fly away)
So why not while we're here
Can't we live side by side?
Mountains roll down to the cities
Trailer parks and towns
People black and white and yellow
The frozen Stormy Downs
Muddy paths and thirsty fields
The bones that lie beneath
The cruel things we've done through time
When will we be released?
Children of the earth
One day your souls must fly (fly away)
So why not while we're here
Can't we live side by side?
