Let the River Run

Lyrics

Let the river run
 Let all the dreamers wake the nation
 Come, the New Jerusalem
 ♪
 Silver cities rise
 The morning lights the streets that lead them
 And sirens call them on with a song
 It's asking for the taking
 Trembling, shaking
 Oh, my heart is aching
 We're coming to the edge
 Running on the water
 Coming through the fog
 Your sons and daughters
 We the great and small
 Stand on a star
 And blaze a trail of desire
 Through the darkening dawn
 ♪
 It's asking for the taking
 Come run with me now
 The sky is the colour of blue
 You've never even seen
 In the eyes of your lover
 Oh, my heart is aching
 We're coming to the edge
 Running on the water
 Coming through the fog
 Your sons and daughters
 Instrumental
 It's asking for the taking
 Trembling, shaking
 Oh, my heart is aching
 We're coming to the edge
 Running on the water
 Coming through the fog
 Your sons and daughters
 Let the river run (Let the river run)
 Let all the dreamers (let all the dreamers)
 Wake the nation (wake the nation)
 Come, the New Jerusalem
