Meet Me By the River

I have been waiting for you by the river Hoping that you would meet me there I have been waiting for you by the river Because we I have so much things to share Big rocks fastened in the ground With a melody that is profound My spirit tells me that you were in town And you are slowing moving around I can’t see you but I can feel your presence around And I can smell your perfume evaporating from the ground The water is flowing off the rocks With all the power that it has got The water is flowing off my back And it is flowing down the stream To meet with my long awaited dream I hear the water bashing from up stream With a rhythm that is so pristine And I can feel my heart growing I hear the water flowing down the river And I can feel my spirit soaring It feels like destiny is slowly creeping upon me And I can feel the cool breeze blowing all over me There are so much precious things to share When your lips are closed and I look into your eyes I will send the message to you Without uttering a single word You will hear my spirit speak, And the Gods will rise up from the deep We will drink tea in front of the fireside And stare into each other’s eyes We will salute everyone with great pride And every single one will unite With their long awaited bride And when the day is done, we will cook Your favorite meal, and journey with you Way out in the deep We will climb the mountain And sing in front of the fountain Mystery will meet with mystery And the long forgotten emotional pain That held us in bondage all these years Will be finally broken because the devil will speak It was more than jealousy that kept the music playing It was the need to be who I am, you have been planning For me since I was a youth but its time you tell me the truth The things that you wanted for me wasn’t what I really wanted I just wanted to live a simple life And to come home every night to my bride I wanted enough that could keep me contented So that I could relax and write some major books But your ambition for me was bigger And your needs becomes greater It is the journey that kept me going around And the people that kept frowning at me in the town But the heavens has finally opened And the music is finally playing The skies are dancing in pleasure And the sound from the water is playing a musical tune The river is on the run and it is time to have fun I want to travel around the world and sample some great cuisine Taste some perfect wine And create my own fashion line Every time I thing about it Tears start flowing from my eyes The water is flowing, the river is growing And my spirit is at ease as it reminiscence with the breeze. Beauty is near and we have everything to share Lonely nights, humbled pride and heavy sound of the train passing by at nights I can feel the wind blowing and I can feel my spirit soaring And the quietness of the morning keeps my heart growing I am longing to share that moment with you When our dream will finally come true A dream that has my spirit shaking A dream that has me waiting Alas the time has come, When the sun will no more be on the run I will wake up in the morning and my heart Will be glad and I will sing a new song The evening and the morning will be one When we join hands in hand The shadows will increase and The music will play a new beat at our feet Listen to the water flowing through the river It is making my spirit still, It must be Gods will Here I am waiting at the foot of the hill by the river The rain is drizzling all over me and my spirit is finally free. Come and share these ecstatic and enchanting moments with me. Come and join me.
