There's a tree by the river
See its leaves are dancing in the wind
Same in good times and bad times
Unaffected by the world that we have made

Who cries for the children
Who dies but the innocent all in vain
Lost souls in a cold world
In this tragedy, it will all remain the same
No sun in a black heart
No light in the shadow of the cruel
I sigh for an angel
Of humanity, to be wise and not the fool

In my dreams I sail away
On ships of wonder
To reach the light of day
Whatever I feel
Dreams are made for real
It was you who set my spirit free

We lost our common sense
And it really brings me down
Brings me down

There’s a tree by the river
Still its leaves are dancing in the wind
Same in good and in bad times
Unaffected by the world that we have made
In my dreams I sail away
On ships of wonder
To reach the light of day
Whatever I feel
Dreams are made for real
It was you who set my spirit free

Set my, you set my spirit free
