I've been around and I'm just wishing on a star
I've travelled long ways but I've never been this far
I've seen the world with my eyes never did I know
But I'm gonna find a way no matter what they say
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - I believe
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - I will find
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - All the happiness
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - Of the world
(Wdh. 1. Strophe)
There are times when I just wanna lay down on the ground
And never ralise again no matter what's been found
But then I realise I have to carry on
And I try to move along to the rivers full of joy
So many people pass me by without a sign
I try to catch them, but I don't know if it's right
As far as I can see, I still got much to learn
But I have to find a way, no matter what they say
It's time to wake up now, 'cause much is still undone
I made up my mind and nothing gets me down
And I won't stop this time until I'm really through
And I have to move along to the rivers full of joy
And now when I know myself
I see it all so clear -
There's nothing more to fear
You can find joy and happiness
No matter what storm you come across
So hear me when I say you're here to stay
Hold on tight and I'll be right
You can find joy and happiness
No matter what storm, just happiness
You just take a look deep down - in the rivers of joy
