Far away

Almut Ritter, Harald Schmidt

Far away the river flows forever on
The sun goes down and the waves roll back the tide
Yesterday is done and my time has come
Far away I’m on the run

All is done that may be done I stand across the main
I’ll bet all my money there’s no way back again
A chance as good as any I’m glad for what I’ve done
I stand across the water far away I’m on the run

Far away the river flows forever on
The sun goes down and the waves roll back the tide
Yesterday is done and my time has come
Far away I’m on the run

I rose up right and early and the lights are dim and low
The breeze could tell you my tales while all the rivers flow
The good time I’ve had plenty in this race that I have run
I stand across the water far away I’m on the run

Far away the River...

The breath of air is howling catch the waves as they roll out
Come, sing a song of freedom come, sing it clear and loud
A long, long time to travel since this journey had begun
I stand across the water far away I’m on the run

Far away the River...

Far away the River...
