Track "Selfless People" taken from RIVERS OF ENGLAND´S debut album 'Of Trivial And Gargantuan' which will be released in March 2014.

lyrics

"Selfless People"

'You thought you'd go in your own direction.
One day you made a rare connection.
Seeking praise never your intention.
Your strength beat apprehension.

Never one for the photo shoot -
you'd wear nothing than a pinstripe suit.
You're more aware than the average clown -
You never settled in the dull small town.

You followed Gandhi since your mother died,
you swam against a swelling tied,
you went to help the weak and afflicted -
you never thought you'd become addicted.

Many years in a foreign place;
the many crimes of the human race.
You never needed to hear the applause,
you're a saint with a noble cause.

You're an unsung hero,
where would the world be
without the loving things you do?
You put your arms around the world
and you bear it out, you bear it out, you bear it out again.

On your own you set a fine example,
where others found too large a handful.
Surely others too should bear the pain -
It's you that meant the world would gain.

Many years in a foreign place;
the many crimes of the human race.
You never needed to hear the applause,
You're a saint with a noble cause.

You're an unsung hero,
where would the world be
without the loving things you do?
You put your arms around the world
and you bear it out, you bear it out, you bear it out again.'
