Lyrics:

The river did come to me
Straight into my arms
I tried to hold it
But it just ran through my fingers

The ocean did come to me
Straight into my arms
I tried to caress it
But it ran through my fingers

Water will keep running
Rivers will turn
Water will keep running
Rivers will turn

So how can I ever find
What I’m looking for
When it’s been frozen
Stuck at the horizon

The wind blows from north to south
But I’m still where I was
Keep taking some shirts on
And taking them off

Peeling off the layers
Peeling it off
Peeling off the layers
Peeling it off

I wish I could find a cure
And to know my disease
But like nothing is certain
The circle will form a line

And that line will carry me
To the other side
That is looking just like this
With the same kind of open light

Everything is open
Leaking of life
Everything is open
Leaking of life
