Lyrics
Had to travel empty rivers
Had to know if there was anyone there
Down the railways
And the byways
Hear it calling my name
Well of life
Sight for these sore eyes
Well, it’s worth the wait
Come back here again
Empty rivers
What I was seeking
Kept and spoken, a son returns
Strength and kindness, an ancient kingdom
Farewell until we meet again
Well of life
Sight for these sore eyes
Well, it’s worth the wait
Come back here again
Faith is giving part of yourself
In the place that you dwell
Faith is giving part of yourself
In the place that you dwell
Well of life
Sight for these sore eyes
Well, it’s worth the wait
Come back here again
And I’ll travel on
I’ll travel on
Empty Rivers
