Just Around the Riverbend Lyrics
Even the wild mountain stream
As the river cuts his path
The smoothest course
You can't step in
Don't know what for
What I dream the day might send
The same river twice
Just around the riverbend
For me
That's why rivers live so long
The water's always changing
Coming for me
I feel it there
Always flowing
Beyond those trees
Or right behind these waterfalls
Though the river's
They're steady
But people I guess
Can I ignore that sound
Of distant drumming
Can't live like that
For a handsome sturdy husband
Who builds handsome sturdy walls
As the steady beating drum
We all must pay a price
And never dreams
That something might be coming
To be safe we lose
Just around the riverbend
Just around the riverbend
Must someday join the big river
Proud and strong
He wants me to be steady
Our chance of ever knowing
l look once more
Just around the riverbend
What's around the riverbend
Beyond the shore
Somewhere past the sea
Like the river
Waiting just around
Don't know what for
Why do all my dreams extend
The riverbend
Just around the riverbend
Just around the riverbend
He will choose
But it's not steady at all
I Iook once more
Should I choose
The smoothest course
Just around the riverbend
Steady as the beating drum
Should I marry Kocoum
What I love most about rivers is
Beyond the shore
Is all my dreaming at an end
Or do you still
Where the gulls fly free
Wait for me Dream Giver
Just around the riverbend
