lyrics

V1 The sun rises slowly in the distance,
Ear to the shell
But no ocean hears your call,
Echoes in your heart
With a song of resistance,
Struggle for the light as another brick will fall

CHORUS
Wont you rock, rock-a-bye my baby,
Don’t you ever let them see you cry,
Wont you rock, rock-a-bye my baby,
Soon there will come a day
When their rivers will run dry

V2 I hold you in my arms
As the waves crash around me,
Wait until the night
So the shadows keep us warm,
I look back at the land
As the flowers wilt and birds flee,
Spread their wings and take flight
Through the storm

(C) Wont you rock, rock-a-bye my baby,
Don’t you ever let them see you cry,
Wont you rock, rock-a-bye my baby,
Soon there will come a day
When their rivers will run dry

INSTRUMENTAL

V3 At last, words shall cease to stir our violence,
Listen with your heart
And your walls come falling down,
There’s wisdom to be heard
In the gentle sound of silence
Throw their words into the river’s arms
And break your golden crown

(C) Wont you rock, rock-a-bye my baby,
Don’t you ever let them see you cry,
Wont you rock, rock-a-bye my baby,
Soon there will come a day
When their rivers will run dry X2

Soon there will come a day
When their rivers will run dry X2
