(Lyrics by James Seals; music by James Seals & Dash Crofts, 1971)
|
Yesterday, I was born here. Tomorrow, I'll be gone.
|
They say there's a man now, down in Persia - down there.
|
Guess I'll walk, the Euphrates River.
|
The deep, deep river. The wide, wide river.
|
The long, long river. Spiritual river.
|
The river of life. The river of life.
|
|
Let the traces linger on. Many years have come and gone.
|
Oh how lonely man has been, without a trace of the Traceless Friend.
|
|
Everyday day, brings us closer. Every night, my soul sees
|
A worried mankind, suffering blindly.
|
Guess I'll walk, the Euphrates River.
|
The deep, deep river. The wide, wide river.
|
The long, long river. Spiritual river.
|
The river of life. The river of life.
|
|
So let the traces linger on. Many years have come and gone.
|
Oh how lonely man has been, without a trace of the Traceless Friend.
|
|
Yesterday, I was born here. Tomorrow, I'll be gone.
|
And so I'll walk, the Euphrates River.
|
The deep, deep river. The wide, wide river.
|
The long, long river. Spiritual river.
|
The river of life. The river of life.
