Letras The River - David Byrne, Brian Eno

The River

I’m standing on the stage\nI’m working in a restaurant\nI make a decent wage- and I-\nWill sing into the microphone\nThe river rise up\nAnd flows above the interstate\nBeyond the schools and shops- how far-\nThere’s no way to communicate\nThe water’s moving on\nBeyond the lies and hypocrites\nI’m thinking of a song\nI need you to remember it\nThe forest is alive\nIt asks us to participate\nWe lifted up our eyes\nTo promise and reciprocate\nWe fell down on our knees\nFor every human being
