lyrics

Are you given a sign from the gods?
Are you driven where the rain does not fall?
Are you swimming like a goldfish in a bowl?
Or are you here, with your true heart and your soul?
Are you here, with your true heart and your soul?

Are you living, or are you just counting the time?
Are you someone else before you speak your mind?
Are you ridden with the same desire as mine?
Or are you truly free, and the master of your night?
Are you truly free, and the master of your night?


Will you go? Will you go?
To the well, or to the river on the hill?

Will you go? Will you go?
To the well, or to the river on the hill?
To the well, or to the river on the hill?


There’s a stream, and may God let it run high,
There’s a stream, it couldn’t save you if you drank it dry,
There’s a stream of thoughts on the river of my mind,
There’s a stream, and a woman by its side,
There’s a stream, and a woman by its side,


Will she go? Will she go?
Go with you to the world, or go with you to the river on the hill?

Will she go? Will she go?
Go with you to the world, or go with you to the river on the hill?
Go with you to the world, or go with you to the river on the hill?


There’s a bell, and it rings the voice of truth,
That there is love, and love is given without an end in view,
And it rings out across us all,
From the bluest sky to the river on the hill,
From the bluest sky to the river on the hill.


Will you go? Will you go?
Go with her to the world, or go with her to the river on the hill?

Will you go? Will you go?
Go with her to the world, or go with her to the river on the hill?
Go with her to the world, or go with her to the river on the hill?
Go with her to the world, or go with her to the river on the hill?
