| Wonderin' how to cross the river
|
| On a cold and windy night
|
| With the water ragin' higher
|
| By the moon’s shinin' light
|
| Suddenly a man stepped forward
|
| And he looked at all around
|
| He said, «We all must cross this river
|
| We all stand on common ground»
|
| Though I was standin' amongst strangers
|
| I did not know their names
|
| I realized they were with me
|
| And our journey was the same
|
| As he spoke out loud, I looked around me
|
| I could see they knew it, too
|
| We would cross or die together
|
| No one man could make it through
|
| There was shelter across the river
|
| Across the water deep and black
|
| As a storm moved in behind us
|
| There was no way to turn back
|
| So I stepped right up beside him
|
| And took one last look around
|
| That before my eyes I realized
|
| We all stand on common ground
|
| We all stand on common ground
|
| So many years have come and gone
|
| Since we crossed that river wide
|
| When I look back on that night
|
| It still moves me so inside
|
| This world today is like that river
|
| Its water cold and black
|
| We all must cross together
|
| For there is no turnin' back
|
| For the mountain high or a city street
|
| It’s the same old world below our feet
|
| It’s time to wake up, people, and take a look around
|
| We all stand on common ground
|
| It’s time for every woman and every man
|
| And hold the future in our hands
|
| Wake up and look around
|
| We all stand on common ground
|
| We all stand on common ground |
