lyrics

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
But rivers run deep
And valleys go dry
Like blackwater, oh, oh, oh

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
But rivers run deep
And valleys go dry
Like blackwater

Close the door
To temptation
Open wide
The gate of love
Don't let them tell u
War is the answer
Search deep inside
For peace of mind

They only want u to see
What they want u to
But you'll be sad & blue
So chase those blues away

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
But rivers run deep
And valleys go dry
Like blackwater, oh, oh, oh

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
But rivers run deep
And valleys go dry
Like blackwater

Reminisce
About the good times
Don't let bitterness
Eat away
Let no resentment
Hold back your future
Have faith in yourself
You'll find away

They only want u to see
What they want u to
But you'll be sad & blue
So chase those blues away

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
But rivers run deep
And valleys go dry
Like blackwater, oh, oh, oh

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
But rivers run deep
And valleys go dry
Like blackwater, oh, oh, oh

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
But rivers run deep
And valleys go dry
Like blackwater, oh, oh, oh

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine

Deep in the desert when the river runs dry
(the river runs dry)
Leaves one man thirsty
Leaves another to die
(another to die)

Hold on to your vision to help your friend
Don’t u listen to those echoes
Do what you can
‘Cause u know, u know

They only want u to see
What they want u to
But you'll be sad & blue
So chase those blues away

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
But rivers run deep
And valleys go dry
Like blackwater, oh, oh, oh

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
But rivers run deep
And valleys go dry
Like blackwater, oh, oh, oh

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
But rivers run deep
And valleys go dry
Like blackwater, oh, oh, oh

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
But rivers run deep
And valleys go dry
Like blackwater, oh, oh, oh

Just open your heart
Just open your mind
And let your love flow like the sunshine
