lyrics
Born by the river
In a little tent
Oh just like that river
I've been running ever since
It's been a long long time coming
But I know that a change is gonna come
It's been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
Oh I might not be
Might not be if I knew what was up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long long time coming
Oh I know that a change is gonna come
Oh I went to my brother
I said "Brother help me please"
He said "kind sister I would if I could oh I'm not able"
Oh I found myself back
Down on my bloody knees again
Oh there's been times
Times when I thought I couldn't last for long
Oh right now
Right now I feel like I can carry on
It's been a long long time
Oh I know that a change is gonna come
