Like a River

Like A River You're standing in the breeze and the breeze is blowing hard The clouds are coming down now and the leaves are falling fast You try to resist as you lean against the wind Suddenly you realize it's so much easier than you think Life is like a river you just have to let it go People try to hold on to everything they know Life is like a river you never know what's coming next You could wake up in a paradise or besides the train tracks You're standing at the crossroads and the sun is almost gone You're looking over your shoulder wondering where you are Then you remember her face it's just a flash in time Sometimes you have to realize There's always someone else down the line Life is like a river you just have to let it go People try to hold on to everything they own Life is like a river you never know what's round the bend Every day is a new beginning and every day is a new end The high road, the low road or no road at all All roads must lead somewhere or nowhere at all Some pay for their ticket and some just complain But there ain't no use in fighting your own name Life is like a river you just have to let it go People try to hold on to everything they know Life is like a river you never know what's coming next You could wake up in a paradise or besides the train tracks
