Down by the Water

[Chorus]

Down by the water, we watch the river flow

Dreaming of the valley where the green grass grow

We keep the fire burning through the longest night

Hoping for the morning when the sun shines bright

[Verse]

In a distant country, they asked us for a song

How can we sing sweet music when the road is so long?

But the beat is in our soul and the drum begins to play

So we lift our voices and we find our own way

Through the dust and the stone, we are never alone

[Chorus]

Down by the water, we watch the river flow

Dreaming of the valley where the green grass grow

We keep the fire burning through the longest night

Hoping for the morning when the sun shines bright

[Bridge]

Let the thoughts in our mind and the love in our heart

Keep us strong and together, though we are far apart

Every word that we speak, every step that we take

Is a promise of the promise that we will never break

[Outro]

Sweet reggae music playing, keeping us strong

Yeah, the river keeps rolling, rolling along

We find our way home

[Fade Out]
