Generate meaning
1
When I speak the words I repeat
2
Are lost within this roaring
3
And when I call your eyes turn to me
4
But what are they exploring?
5
Hidden shapes that pass fast away
6
Apon the waters streaming
7
And what I see I just cannot say
8
There is no one to heed me
9
I could say that I am sorry
10
But what forgiveness lies before me?
11
In the river
12
Those who know me know all too well
13
All my sins and failings
14
But brother dear, how could I tell?
15
The course that I was sailing
16
In the flood, before my eyes
17
I see the face that I despise
18
In the river
19
It's mine, it's mine
20
Drifting far away
21
I can see you'rte not very strong
22
As the current sweeps you past me
23
And I can see your head going down
24
As helpless your cries find me
25
"Help me! Save me! Lend me a hand!
26
Pull me out! Pull me out!
27
Save me! Save me! Give me your hand!
28
Pull me out! Pull me out! "
29
I would save you, give my life
30
But it's already sacrificed
31
To the river
32
It's gone, it's gone
33
Drifitng far away
34
Mothers tell your children the truth
35
Don't hide the fate that's waiting
36
When you're born you start to drown
37
There's no help, no safety
38
First a gift of love is given
39
Then the winds rise, the sails are riven
40
On the river
