Verse: 1
Demerara
Demerara
What have we done to you
River of gold, river of gold
But would it ever glitter your streets
But would it ever glitter your own streets
Your children’s tears are washing at your feet
Verse: 2
Demerara can you see the
The raindrops I cry for you
Demerara can you feel the
The tear drops that roll down my face
In soul I am a part of you
In soul I share all things with you
In soul our faiths are all intertwined
In soul we are all one
Verse: 3
And there’s` a pain that’s` hidden
Deep beneath your rivers bed
Clouded emotions shades of guilt
Clouded emotions staining soul
That greets us in our silent nights
That traps us in our silent shame
And the pain and tears
And the pain and tears
I could hide no more
And from above we see the river
Flowing gently by in time
Verse: 4
Demerara, can you see the
The raindrops that I cry for you
Demerara, can you feel the
The tear drops that roll down my face
In soul I am a part of you
In soul I share all things with you
In soul our faiths are all intertwined
In soul we are all one
