lyrics

When the river run dry
When the river run dry
When the river run dry
When the river run dry
No, it don’t run anymore

Out on the sea we drown
Let’s find a common ground
Cos we’ve all known suffering
Yeah, we’ve all felt pain
While somebody out there
Been making it rain

Out on the fields we burn
No soil is left unturned
We look to the heavens
To send us a flood
Then wade in the waters
Get stuck in the mud

When the river
When the river run dry
Follow me if you wanna survive
Just keep holding on
Try to be strong

Cos when the river
When the river run dry
Water come in the tears that you cry
14 billion tear drops
Fall from our eyes

When the river run dry
When the river run dry
When the river run dry
When the river run dry
No, it don’t run anymore

Climbing the mountain high
Watching as oceans rise
Let’s sail to a new world
Let’s make a new start
This land we reside on
Is tearing apart

Falling the valley low
Hearing as sound echo
We follow our leader
We lead with our word
I wish I could grow wings
And fly like a bird

When the river
When the river run dry
Follow me if you wanna get by
Just keep holding on
I will be strong

Cos when the river
When the river run dry
Water come in the tears that we cry
14 billion tear drops
One from each eye

When the river run dry
When the river run dry
When the river run dry
When the river run dry
No, it don’t run anymore

When the river run dry
I know we’ll be alright
No, we won’t lose the fight
When the river run dry
All those tears that you cry
Will be gone

And I will be
(I will be)
I will be
(I will be)
I will be strong
When the river run dry

When the river run dry
When the river run dry
When the river run dry
When the river run dry
No, it don’t run anymore

When the river run dry
When the river run dry
When the river run dry
When the river run dry
No, it don’t run anymore

Oh no it don't
Oh no it don't
No
Oh no it don't
Oh no it don't
No
