about

A beautiful, hopeful song by Karine Polwart.

lyrics

This weary earth we walk upon
She will endure when we are gone
While kingdoms come and kingdoms go
Rivers run and rivers flow

You know I don't believe it's true
That in this world there's nothing new
For darling, you have just begun
Rivers flow and rivers run

And if the river should ever run dry
Somewhere the rain will still fall
Will still fall from the sky

When I'm beguiled by the fear
That darker days are drawing near
My darling, you seduce the sun
Rivers flow and rivers run

This wounded earth we walk upon
She will endure when we are gone
But still I pray that you may know
How rivers run and rivers flow

I cross my heart and I hope to live
Just long enough that I can give
It all to you, my darling one
Rivers flow and rivers run
My darling one
Rivers flow and rivers run
