River of Light

[Verse 1]
Headin' off on a river at peace
In the cool of an evening
Headin' off on a river of light
Be a part of a river at night
Nice to be on a river sometimes
Like a June bug travellin'
Headin' off on a ribbon of song
Been away from the river too long
Good to be on a river somewhere
Like a milkweed travellin'
Headin' off on a ribbon of dreams
Be a part of a river it seems
Can you tell me how long must I travel on?

[Chorus]
I won't be lookin' up old friends
I won't be lookin' up old friends
Ever again

[Verse 2]
I spent my life takin' my time
And I can't change anything
Take a look at my river of light
Be a part of a river at night
Nice to be on a river at peace
Like a June bug travellin'
Headin' off on a river at last
My tears will be all in the past
Good to be on a river somewhere
Like a milkweed travellin'
Headin' down where the water runs deep
Down deep where the fish are asleep now
Can you tell me how long must I travel on?

[Chorus]
I won't be lookin' up old friends
I won't be lookin' up old friends
Ever again

[Verse 3]
Trouble don't mean nothin' to me
And I had my share of it
Headin' off on a river of light
Be a part of a river at night
Nice to be on a river at peace
In the cool of an evening
Headin' off on the silver moon light
Maybe love'll find me tonight
Good to be on a river somewhere
Like a milkweed travellin'
Headin' off on a ribbon of dreams
Be a part of a river it seems
Can you tell me how long must I travel on?

[Chorus]
I won't be lookin' up old friends
I won't be lookin' up old friends
Ever again
Ever again
Ever again
