Lyrics

River (Oshun Dub)

Come to your river,
I will come to your river,
I will come to your river

Come to your river, wash myself,
I will come to your river, wash myself,
I will come to your river, wash my soul again.

Carry away my dead leaves,
Let me baptize my soul with the help of your waters,
Sink my pains and complains,
Let the river take them, River drown them,
My ego and my blame let me baptize myself,
With the help of your waters,
Those all means are so ashamed,
Let the river take them, River drown them.

Come to your river,
I will come to your river,
I will come to your river

Come to your river, wash myself,
I will come to your river, wash myself,
I will come to your river, wash my soul again.

Carry away my dead leaves,
Let me baptize my soul with the help of your waters,
Sink my pains and complains,
Let the river take them, River drown them,
My ego and my blame let me baptize myself,
With the help of your waters,
Those all means are so ashamed,
Let the river take them, River drown them.

Come to your river,
I will come to your river,
I will come to your river

Come to your river, wash myself,
I will come to your river, wash myself,
I will come to your river, wash my soul again.
