From deep underground I start unseen br Cool spring water fresh and clean br My only life not visible to the eye br I start to flow, as if the earth did cry br Small and feint I start to trickle br As I flow the land I tickle br As in life we may start as little springs br But soon we grow and do big things br Down the mountains I start to flow br As my intensity starts to grow br My banks are now so far apart br So much wider that at the start br I twist and turn, will I ever stop br I`ve been winding forever right from the top br From a tint trickle to a steady stream br To reach the ocean is my only dream br My veins alive with creatures big and small br Within my belly I carry them all br Life within me does explode br No matter how much I can take the load br Over rocks and boulders I do roar br While above me the fish eagle`s soar br Swollen now I my banks do burst br Hungry lands I feed, they so do thirst br I fill the valley and form a lake br To try and stop me would be a mistake br I push on forward one goal in mind br To reach the ocean, sealed and signed br I`ve cut a groove across this land br But now a lap the ocean sand br Right at the end I reached my goal br Now the ocean waves a feed my soulbr br Vaughn Bekkerbr br
