Life is a teacher, time is a healerAnd I'm a believer like a river wildEgo's a killer, greed is a monsterBut love is stronger, stronger than them allWhite flag in handI don't want to fightNo lines in the sand, I'm on your sideInvisible, no color lifeIt's time we put our, put our, put our differences asideTime tells no liesIt keeps changing, and ticking, and moving, then passes byBut if you're lucky it will be kindLike a river flowing through timeLet it wash you clean(Like a river)Going up stream(Like a river)Cutting through right(Like a river)'Cause it never gives up(Like a river)So full of life(Like a river)Liquid like time(Like a river)That'll wash away(Like a river)The pain from yesterdayLove is the answer, hate is a cancerHope of forgiveness, it waters the soulOur blood is red, we're not so different'Cause underneath our skin we're identicalWhite flag in handI'm not gonna fightNo lines in the sand, I'm on your sideInvisible, no color riseIt's time we put our, oh put our differences asideWe know wrong from rightOh time tells no liesIt keeps changing, and ticking, and moving, then passes byBut if you're lucky it will be kindOh like a river flowing through timeLet it wash you clean(Like a river)Going up stream(Like a river)Cutting through right(Like a river)'Cause it never gives up(Like a river)So full of life(Like a river)Liquid like time(Like a river)Let it wash away(Like a river)The pain from yesterdayOh oh oh (mighty river)Rain down on me(Like a river)All it takes is time(Mighty river)To heal this bloodline(Like a river)Better wash me clean(Mighty river)Get this dirt off of me(Like a river)Oh oh oh (mighty river)Let it wash the painOh oh oh (like a river)Oh like a river (mighty river)Mighty and better river (like a river)Oh yeah (mighty river)Rain down on me(Like a river)Oh oh oh (mighty river)Oh all the hurt and pain(Like a river)Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah(Mighty river)Oh mighty river, mighty river (ooh ooh ooh ooh)
