ALL PROCEEDS GO TO THE CANCER RESEARCH INSTITUTE.

lyrics
Gather your pictures
Label them with your name
Send them out to the vastness of space
Let the fiery shade of passion inflame you
Gaze at the stars and know your place
Oh the river keeps on flowing
Oh day by day my fears are shrinking
Oh the river keeps on flowing
Sail Away
Sail Away
Sail Away
Sail Away
Every now and again
You stop along the way
Every now and then
You find yourself astray
Somewhere out there
A quasar is forming
For all the things that we bear
We realize we know nothing
Oh the river keeps on flowing
Oh day by day my fears are shrinking
Oh the river keeps on flowing
Sail Away
Sail Away
Sail Away
Sail Away
Oh the river keeps on flowing
Oh day by day my fears are shrinking
Oh the river keeps on flowing
Oh the river keeps on flowing
