I drive my oar into the water
I think that I've seen a light
On the other side of the river
The day will keep beating
Little by little, the cold
I think that I've seen a light
On the other side of the river
So many tears, so many tears, and I
I hear a voice that calls me
On this shore of the world
What isn't prey is wasteland
I think that I've seen a light
On the other side of the river
I, very serious, keep rowing
I think that I've seen a light
On the other side of the river
So many tears, so many tears, and I
I hear a voice that calls me
I drive my oar into the water
I think that I've seen a light
On the other side of the river
