"For anyone who's ever won. For anyone who's ever lost. And for everyone who's still in there trying." - tagline
Ranking as one of the most entertaining and intelligent films of all time, Mike Nichols' Working Girl is a winner by all means. Great storyline, inspired performances and a knockout soundtrack. It's a story of one woman's dream to be the best. Legendary Carly Simon sung the iconic theme Let The River Run for the film. The song deservedly won at the Oscars and at the Golden Globe for best original song as well the Grammys Best Song Written Specifically for a Motion Picture or for Television. It's a winner by all means.
LET THE RIVER RUN
sung by: Carly Simon
We're coming to the edge
Running on the water
Coming through the fog
Your sons and daughters
Let the river run
Let all the dreamers
Wake the nation
Come, the new Jerusalem
Silver cities rise
The morning lights
The streets that meet them
And sirens call them onwith a song
It's asking for the taking
Trembling, shaking
Oh, my heart is aching
We're coming to the edge
Running on the water
Coming through the fog
Your sons and daughters
We the great and small
Stand on a star
And blaze a trail of desire
Through the dark'ning dawn
It's asking for the taking
Come run with me now
The sky is the color of blue
You've never even seen
In the eyes of your lover
Oh, my heart is aching
We're coming to the edge
Running on the water
Coming through the fog
Your sons and daughters
It's asking for the taking
Trembling, shaking
Oh, my heart is aching
We're coming to the edge
Running on the water
Coming through the fog
Your sons and daughters
Let the river run
Let all the dreamers
Wake the nation
Come, the new Jerusalem
