The River
Lüers-Merck-Wittke-Ulrich
Memories,
Souls of the departed passing by.
Memories…
Calling me,
wash images of losses off my mind.
Calling me…
Ask myself,
What the stream is gonna bring this time?
Ask myself…
Where the river knows no bound,
Traces to be found.
Where the river knows no bound …
… Safe and sound!
Givin’ goes on,
Takin’ goes on,
Can’t be undone!
The river rolls on…
Far away,
There’s a spring where everything begins.
Far away …
On and on,
An everlasting circuit goes and goes.
On and on …
Confidence,
What’s lost and gone makes way for somethin’ new.
Confidence…
Where the river knows no bound,
Traces to be found.
Where the river knows no bound …
… Safe and sound!
Givin’ goes on,
Takin’ goes on,
Can’t be undone!
The river rolls on…

Reviews ‚The River‘
… eine soulig-funkige, Desert-rockige Nummer mit Lou Reed-Feeling.

Schließen sich VELVETONE mit THE FAT HONKS kurz, kommt eine ansprechend funkige Urban-Soul-Nummer heraus; „The River“ macht Lust auf mehr von dieser Kollaboration.
