yes, because the water cycle is constant, and if water that evaporates in the sea travels as water vapour over land and rains then the rain can soak in and run back to lakes as water underground.(throughflow)

Why do rivers eventually empty into an ocean?

Rivers always flow downhill. Given the vast expanse of the ocean, most of the time, if you keep going downhill, even on the slightest of slopes, you will eventually reach the ocean. There are a few exceptions, though, where rivers end at basins not connected to the ocean. Several rivers once fed into the landlocked Aral sea before they were diverted by human activity. The Okavango river simply spreads out, forming a delta in the Kalahari Desert, where most of the water evaporates.


What are the lyrics to 'Bitter Desire' by Kids in the Kitchen?

I know there's one thing you're holding deep inside So angry but not inclined to tell, Oh oh And it feel like everything so special has gone But there's nothing I can do when I feel you've lost the urge Then I know, yeah I know everything feels so wrong I fell down once, I fell once I fell down once, I fell once I fell, I fell into bitter desire On one side, passion holds and I'm always there for you Oh and it seems like all my hopes are coming quite true But when you held me, my love kept craving 'til it burnt out at the end I want nothing except a chance to seal it all away I fell down once, I fell once I fell down once, I fell once I fell, I fell into bitter desire I see you feel drawn in to the point where I go weak And it feels like there's so much I can't hide Then I think of you, what I should do, whether we should try again But then I realise, I read between the lines I fell down once, I fell once I fell down once, I fell once I fell, I fell into bitter desire
