You sit in silence
   And the river answers
   And I have loved you many, many years
   I saw you standing by the wonderous river
   And I have come today
   To calm your fears
  
   Those lifetimes
   So many lifetimes
   With you
  
   The boatman singin' far across the water
   What is this feelin' in my heart and soul
   The nighttime angel spreads her wings around me
   And I feel the sadness
   And the river flows
  
   Those lifetimes
   So many lifetimes
   With you
  
   Listen to the music inside
   That is all that you have to do
   Listen to the music inside
   Can't you hear what it says to you
  
   And I shall get to know you
   In these lifetimes
   In awe and wonder
   On down through the years
   The nighttime angel spreads her wings around me
   I feel the silence
   And my doubts are cleared
  
   Those lifetimes
   So many lifetimes
   With you
  
   Listen to the music inside
   That is all that you have to do
   Listen to the music inside
   Can't you hear what it says to you
  
   Listen to the music inside
   That is all that you have to do
   Listen to the music inside
   Can't you hear what it says to you
