'Ve been around and I'm just wishing on a star I've travelled a long way, but I never been this far I've seen the world with my eyes, never did I know But I'm gonna find a way, no matter what they say In the rivers of joy, halleluja, joy - I believe In the rivers of joy, halleluja, joy - I will find In the rivers of joy, halleluja, joy - all the happiness In the rivers of joy, halleluja, joy - of the world I've been around and I'm just wishing on a star I've travelled a long way, but I never been this far I've seen the world with my eyes, never did I know But I'm gonna find a way, no matter what they say There are times when I just wanna lay down on the ground And never rise again no matter what's been found But than I realise, I have to carry on I try to move along to the rivers of joy In the rivers... So many people pass me by without a sign I try to catch them but I don't know if it's right As far as I can see, I still got much to learn I have to find a way, no matter what they say It's time to wake up now, 'cause much is still undone I made my mind up and nothing gets me down And I won't stop this time until I'm really through I have to move along to the rivers of joy In the rivers... And now when I know myself I see it all so clear, there's nothing more to fear You can find joy and happiness No matter what storm you come across So hear me when I say, you're here to stay Hold on tight and I'll be right You can find joy and happiness No matter what storm, just happiness You just take a look deep down, to the rivers of joy In the rivers...
