[Verse 1]
Now the highway is sleeping
The plains are still
The steel rails are silent
Sun’s going down behind the hills
And the night comes falling
With the evening star
Wherever you’re going
Wherever you are

[Chorus]
You are one deep river, old friend
One deep river, amen
You’re one deep river, old friend
One deep river, amen

[Verse 2]
The wild geese are flying
Into the west
And your soul is heading
To its rest
But your light will keep on burning
Like that evening star
And your song will keep returning
Wherever you are

[Chorus]
You are one deep river, old friend
One deep river, amen
You’re one deep river, old friend
One deep river, amen
