River of Time

I saw the river today and it made me feel okay
But I never ever had a lot to say
Reading a book take a look at a boat go by
Oh, oh, oh, oh I sigh -

I've been throwing a coin into the river
Make a wish as I watch the water quiver
Now and then i go walking by the river of time
Leaving all my thoughts behind

I saw the river today and it made me feel free
Oh tell me what is happening to me
I catch my reflection and suddenly see
The woman the girl couldn't be

So I'm throwing my youth into the river
Make a wish as I watch the water quiver
Now and then i go walking by the river of time
Leaving all my thoughts behind

(Chorus Chant:)
Winter comes and goes, and the wind it blows
Still the water flows, and everybody knows
Come the summertime all the churches chime
For thye river of time

I saw the river today and I started to cry
Cause the promise it made was a lie
Stumbling brook you're a crook, take a look and see
See what you've done to me

So I'm throwing my heart into the river
Forget the wish that you never could deliver
Now and then I go walking by the river of time
Leaving all my thoughts behind

Winter comes and goes, and the wind it blows
Still the water flows, and everybody knows
Come the summertime all the churches chime
For thye river of time

So I'll keep throwing a coin into the river
Forget the wish that you never could deliver
Now and then I go walking by the river of time
Leaving all my thoughts behind

See as your life changes as you're pulled along by time...
