We follow the river down into the stream That's where my dream began I left my worries to the people who stare And dream without a care That I'd always be beside you to watch the day and night And we'd listen to the sunrise and feel its growing light And peace will come inside So quiet Wherever we're goin' I don't know For million years our love keeps growin' The mystery deepens day by day But trust my love and hear me say That I'll always be beside you to watch the day and night And we'd listen to the sunrise and feel its growing light And peace will come inside So quiet And peace will come inside So quiet Guess I'll always be beside you to watch the day and night And we'd listen to the sunrise and feel its growin' light And peace will come inside So quiet Yes peace will come inside So quiet
