    Instrumental
    By the rivers dark
    I wandered on.
    I lived my life
    In babylon.
    And i did forget
    My holy song:
    And i had no strength
    In babylon.
    By the rivers dark
    Where i could not see
    Who was waiting there
    Who was hunting me.
    And he cut my lip
    And he cut my heart.
    So i could not drink
    From the rivers dark.
    And he covered me,
    And i saw within,
    My lawless heart
    And my wedding ring,
    I did not know
    And i could not see
    Who was waiting there,
    Who was hunting me.
    By the rivers dark
    I panicked on.
    I belonged at last
    To babylon.
    Then he struck my heart
    With a deadly force,
    And he said, ‘this heart:
    It is not yours.'
    And he gave the wind
    My wedding ring;
    And he circled us
    With everything.
    By the rivers dark,
    In a wounded dawn,
    I live my life
    In babylon.
    Though i take my song
    From a withered limb,
    Both song and tree,
    They sing for him.
    Be the truth unsaid
    And the blessing gone,
    If i forget
    My babylon.
    By the rivers dark,
    Where it all goes on;
    By the rivers dark
    In babylon.
