D-DU-UDU
 There's  a river of love that runs through  all times.
 
 There's a river of grief that floods through our lives.
 It starts when a heart gets broken in two
 By the thief of  belief in anything that's  true.
 But there's a river of  love that runs through  all times.
There's  a river of love that runs through  all times.
 But there's a river of tears that flows through  our eyes.
 We fight through the night for freedom as it fades
 Into a jail  where we fail every time we make  a break.
 But there's a river of  love that runs through  all times.
I  had to run before I knew how to crawl.
 The first  step was hard, but I've had trouble with them all.
 But now the night grows  darker and the day grows dim
 And I know I never will see you again.
 And I always  made you happy.
There's  a river of love that runs through  all times.
 There's a river of fire that burns with  no light.
 The flame is the pain of dreams gone up  in smoke.
 >From the lies we  deny and we breathe them 'til we  choke.
 But there's a river of  love that runs through  all times.
