When the land is full of anger
When the fists of hate are shook
When there is no common ground to be found
Where to look

We will meet in the middle of the river
We will hide in the heart of a cloud
If that's the place where we can be together
We'll be there somehow

I would sail to the sources of the ocean
I would climb to the foot of the stars
If that's what it takes for us to be together
We will live in the middle of the river

In your eyes is a promise I believe in
In your smile is the path to my heart
In this life we will be together even
If we live in the middle of the river
(In the middle of the river)

And now, seeing the love in your eyes, it will carry me through
The power of all the storms in the skies couldn't shake me
Or tear me or take me from you
Not from you

I don't know what they hate so much about you
I don't know what they cannot forgive
All I know is I couldn't live without you
Though we live in the middle of the river

And now, now that I know what it's worth
To have you in my heart
I'll scour every last inch of the earth
For a place where they won't try to break us apart

And if the only time for us is never
If there's nowhere with shelter to give
We will go where the wild winds make the weather
To the edges of forever

But we will be together
If we live in the middle of the river

If there is no land for us, where can we look?
