River Of Life - Live in Central Park, NYC - Premiata Forneria Marconi

Rain was your birth

Gathered deep

Beneath the earth.

Search and seep,

Hollow stone

Issue and flow

Virgin stream

Meander free

It's a long way to the sea.

Caves and canyons

Stark prison walls

Swirl and hurl you

>From white cascading falls.

Across the plain

Sweep your course

River roll

Follow your star.

There's a city

There's a bridge.

Ships and barges

Dark rusty hearts

Feed cranes along your banks.

Waste and poison

cloy where once men drank.

Forget the pain

>From rain to rain

Journey's end

Is surely not far ...
