LYRICS
I’ve been walking for miles and miles
Along this dusty road beneath a blazing sky
Searching for sustenance
So our children will not die
I’ve been waiting for years and years
In this desert for some kind of hope
Praying to the Gods above
That our people can have a fertile home
Chorus:
May the water flow all over our land
And may our children smile again
May the Gods above answer all our prayers
And may the world begin to care
There is so much we have to teach
But love is just outside our reach
There is so much we want to learn
But first this chapter has to turn
I had a dream that children of all races
Were dancing in the rain
And the deserts of the world
Were filled with flowers and with grain
And I know that the wisdom of all the ancient ones
Will guide our way
Brothers and sisters hand in hand
To build a greener day
Chorus
May the water flow
May it make us whole
May the water flow in the Azawak
May the water flow
May it heal our soul
May the water flow on our planet
I had a dream that children of all races
Were dancing in the rain
And the deserts of the world
Were filled with flowers and with grain
And I know that the wisdom of all the ancient ones
Will guide our way
Brothers and sisters hand in hand
To build a greener day
Chorus
Now children from a distant land
Have helped us dig beneath the sand
Water can now flow to us
And to our animals from this well of love
With new friendship and new strength
Our women can work alongside our men
Start anew to use our tools
Build new roads, homes, and schools
