Letra de The River & the Ocean
I am a river in the ocean Particles spread far and thin But I can still remember what I was then Now I am something greater Though less of what I wasThe day that I discovered I was a river in the oceanI am a bird whistling in the dark Stuck in this cavernous mine When silence falls You know it's time to start runningI am a bird that's never seen much light Stuck in this cavernous ark Soon they'll send me out to look for land And I'll bring back a little barkI am a stroller in the park Wrapped 'round this beautiful babe I and the dark skinned woman Pushing me are its slavesI am a stroller in the park Walking my flypaper skin Through the balmy August air Which sucks my body's waters from withinI am a river in the ocean Particles spread far and thin But I can still remember what I was then Now I am something greater Though less of what I wasThe day that I discovered I was a river in the ocean Just a river in the ocean Just a river in the oceanBut I'm waiting for the rainstorm To take me back upstream And I'm waiting for the brainstorm To fill me back to the brimSo bring on the lightning This midnight orange sky Grows frightening Break the water for me'Cause I'm waiting for the rainstorm To take me back upstream And I'm waiting for the brainstorm To fill me back to the brimSo bring on the lightning This midnight orange sky Grows frightening Break the water for meRow, row, row your boat Gently down the stream Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily Life is but a dreamRow, row, row your boat Gently down the stream Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily Life is but a dream Life is but a dream Life is but a dreamAnd what's the difference Between nothing and everything? And what's the difference Between no one and everyone?And what's the difference Between nowhere and everywhere? Everything, everyone and everywhere Everything, everyone and everywhere But what's the difference?But I'm waiting for the rainstorm To take me back upstream And I'm waiting for the brainstorm To fill me back to the brimSo bring on the lightning Bring on the enlightening Break the water for me
