When The River Meets The Sea Lyrics - Sesame Street

Robin: When the mountain touches the valley 

All the clouds are taught to fly 

As our souls will leave this land most peacefully 

Though our minds be filled with questions 

In our hearts we'll understand 

When the river meets the sea 

John Denver: Like a flower that has blossomed 

In this dry and barren sand 

We are born and born again most gracefully 

Plus the winds of time will take us 

With a sure and steady hand 

When the river meets the sea 

All: Patience my brothers 

And patience my son 

In that sweet and final hour 

Truth and justice will be done 

Robin: Like a baby when it is sleeping 

In its mother's loving arms 

What a newborn baby dreams is a mystery (a mystery)
