When you cross that river The trees they will
bow down The sky will open up to you And
the lark will sing your song When you cross
that river The path will follow you And the
winds they will caress your lips And the fires
they'll burn strong Until then... yeah
yeah The pastures seem greener on the other
side Alexander don't bide your time
uneasily When you cross that river The
rains will be your wine The brambles your
mandolins The earth to dance upon When you
cross that river The moon will give you
rest The night will be your blanket And the
sun your morning guest When you cross that
river Boudicca you will wed Fuareg you will
feast upon Mirth your wedding bed When you
cross that river Your fields will plenty
reap Your children like every spring Will
autumn keep
