《Slave to the River》歌词

[00:00:00] Slave To The River - Patrice

[00:00:01] He went down to the river

[00:00:04] And this is what she said

[00:00:07] I look simple yet I'm complex

[00:00:10] I do not distract

[00:00:11] I have the same color

[00:00:12] As the son I was built of

[00:00:14] My shape is beautiful

[00:00:17] From a stream she cried me a river

[00:00:21] And at the river she showed me my dream

[00:00:25] Only peace could deliver

[00:00:30] The son of sons and let him rescue me anyway

[00:01:10] She was standing there
