River Of Tears (泪流成河) - Ian Hunter[00:00:00]

I'm waiting on an elevator[00:00:22]

In a hotel out in California[00:00:26]

Smog clouds up the windows[00:00:31]

But there is a plaque up on the wall[00:00:34]

That tells of the agoras[00:00:38]

People who were here long before us[00:00:43]

Before the covered wagons[00:00:47]

Before they lost it all[00:00:51]

They were hunters[00:00:55]

They were fishermen and they often[00:00:56]

Fought each other[00:01:00]

But one small tribe was different[00:01:03]

Their leader was a peaceful man[00:01:07]

They were weavers[00:01:10]

They were painters[00:01:13]

Trading pelts for pretty colours[00:01:15]

Protected by the warriors for[00:01:19]

The beauty in their hands[00:01:23]

Roll back the years[00:01:26]

Roll back the years to the river of tears[00:01:30]

Of the chief he had a daughter[00:01:43]

She was young and she was beautiful[00:01:47]

He said go into the forest[00:01:51]

Get some berries for the dye[00:01:55]

But make your way back quickly[00:01:59]

For the old bear's getting hungry[00:02:03]

I don't want you out there[00:02:08]

When the sun falls from the sky[00:02:11]

Her basket filled with berries[00:02:16]

She headed back toward the village[00:02:19]

When a mighty roar erupted[00:02:24]

She ran and hid inside a hollow tree[00:02:27]

And the shadows were getting longer[00:02:31]

And the forest was getting colder[00:02:36]

And the chief began to panic[00:02:40]

Where could his daughter be[00:02:44]

Lost in the years yeah lost in the years[00:02:47]

On the river of tears[00:02:55]

In the camp the fires were dying when[00:03:12]

The old chief started crying[00:03:16]

Soon all the tribe were crying[00:03:20]

And the ground grew wet beneath their feet[00:03:24]

And the tears they turned to water[00:03:28]

And the water became a river[00:03:32]

And the river flowed like an arrow[00:03:36]

To the foot of a hollow tree[00:03:40]

And the girl looked out in wonder[00:03:44]

As she saw the water falling[00:03:48]

She knew it was her father and[00:03:52]

She swam to his canoe[00:03:56]

And all the tribe stopped crying[00:04:00]

And the river started subsiding[00:04:04]

Into the hill of the agoras[00:04:08]

And so the legend grew[00:04:12]

Roll back the years[00:04:16]

Roll back the years[00:04:20]

Roll back the years[00:04:24]

Roll back the years[00:04:28]

Ahh[00:04:30]

To the river of tears[00:04:31]

I wish all the world was healing[00:04:54]

I wish all the world was healing[00:05:03]

I wish all the world was healing[00:05:11]

I wish all the world was healing[00:05:19]
