Letra de By the Rivers Dark
By the rivers dark I wandered on I lived my life In BabylonAnd I did forget My holy song And I had no strength In BabylonBy the rivers dark Where I could not see Who was waiting there Who was hunting meAnd he cut my lip And he cut my heart So I could not drink From the river darkAnd he covered me And I saw within My lawless heart And my wedding ringI did not know And I could not see Who was waiting there Who was hunting meBy the rivers dark I panicked on I belonged at last To BabylonThen he struck my heart With a deadly force And he said: "This heart It is not yours!"And he gave the wind My wedding ring And he circled us With everythingBy the rivers dark In a wounded dawn I live my life In BabylonThough I take my song From a withered limb Both song and tree They sing for himBe the truth unsaid And the blessing gone If I forget My Babylon I did not know And I could not see Who was waiting there Who was hunting me By the rivers dark Where it all goes on By the rivers dark In Babylon
