What does she get for all the love she gave you

There on the ladder of regrets?

Mighty river, give her all she gets

What does she get for all the love she gave you

There on the ladder of regrets?

Daytime nightime suffering is all she gets



Where are the prizes for the games she entered

With little chance of much success?

Daytime nightime suffering is all she gets



Come on, river, overflow

Let your love for your people show

Come on, river, flow through me

Let your love of your people be

You are the river, I am a stream

Flow mighty river through me



What does it pay to play the leading lady

When like the damsel in distress

Daytime nightime suffering is all she gets?



No less (no less), no more (no more)

No sea (no sea), no shore (no shore)

No sand (no sand), no pail (no pail)

No fairy tale anymore



Come on, river, flow through me

Don't be stopped by insanity

Come on, river, overflow

Let your love for your neighbours grow

You are the river, I am a stream

Flow mighty river through me

Daytime nightime suffering is all she gets Woh-oh

Daytime nightime suffering is all she gets Woh-oh

Daytime nightime suffering is all she gets

What does she get for all the love she gave you
