lyrics

River of life I saw you when I looked down from the sky
I was flying way up high
I saw how you twist and turn and curve and bend
But in the end you’re always flowing to the sea
Flowing through Africa
Through Africa

You started out as rain falling from the sky
On a mountain way up high
And so you fed into a stream, running fast, running clean
And down through the valleys green
Flowing through Africa
Through Africa

Sometimes you dry up in the summer heat
And all that's left of you is sand
But then the rains come and you run again
Along the river bed and across the plains
You're born again
Flowing through Africa
Through Africa

I’m going with the flow now like a river to the sea
I'm flowing around the obstacles and I'm learning to let them be
And when I finally come to the end
The endless Ocean will take me in
To be one with her waters again

River of life I saw you when I looked down from the sky
I was flying way up high
I saw how you twist and turn and curve and bend
But in the end you’re always flowing to the sea
Flowing through Africa
Through Africa
Flowing through Africa
