[Verse 1]
I walked back down the river bend road
Gathered up a couple good stones
Down to the water, went looking for a load
I wasn’t very far from home
[Verse 2]
Well I saw my face at the water's edge
The man with the heavy heart
Every now and then he feels so close
And every now and then so far
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me
[Chorus]
Where did the young man go
The one in the water that I used to know
When did he losе that fight
Did he just grow old
Did he just grow tired
[Verse 3]
Thе face I saw was a younger man
A little more sure of his ways
Blissful fool didn’t understand
Hadn’t seen enough in his day
[Verse 4]
Ten years time and a wiser mind
It seems his world has changed
Knowing somehow what I didn’t know then
Would I still have done it the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me
[Chorus]
Where did the young man go
The one in the water that I used to know
When did he lose that fight
Did he just grow old
Did he just grow tired
[Bridge]
There was a time that it came easy for a while
I know it couldn’t have be that long ago
[Chorus]
Where did the young man go
The one in the water that I used to know
When did he lose that fight
Did he just grow old
Did he just grow tired
[Chorus]
Where did the young man go
The one in the water that I used to know
When did he lose that fight
Did he just grow old
Did he just grow tired
[Chorus]
Where did the young man go
The one in the water that I used to know
When did he lose that fight
Did he just grow old
Did he just grow tired
[Outro]
I walked back down the river bend road
Gathered up a couple good stones
Down to the water, went looking for a load
I wasn’t very far from home
