Seals and Crofts
The Euphrates
From the album SUMMER BREEZE (1972)
Yesterday, I was born here. Tomorrow, I'll be gone
They say there's a man now, down in Persia - down there
Guess I'll walk, the Euphrates River
The deep, deep river. The wide, wide river
The long, long river. Spiritual river
The river of life. The river of life
Let the traces linger on. Many years have come and gone
Oh how lonely man has been, without a trace of the Traceless Friend
Everyday day, brings us closer. Every night, my soul sees
A worried mankind, suffering blindly
Guess I'll walk, the Euphrates River
The deep, deep river. The wide, wide river
The long, long river. Spiritual river
The river of life. The river of life
So let the traces linger on. Many years have come and gone
Oh how lonely man has been, without a trace of the Traceless Friend
Yesterday, I was born here. Tomorrow, I'll be gone
And so I'll walk, the Euphrates River
The deep, deep river. The wide, wide river
The long, long river. Spiritual river
The river of life. The river of life
