Time is like a river
My mother used to say
All is in the river
It could be cold, it could be wild
Sometimes soft and clear
So take a look around here
You know
Time is like a river
Flowing through the world
Time is like a river
Running round and round
Time is like a river
It slowly slips away
We are all pa**engers
And the water gave us troubles
When the stream was growing
We must find a shelter
Time is like a river
Flowing through the world
Time is like a river
Running round and round
Time is like a river
My mother used to say
All is in the river
Flowing round and round the world
Running around and round
Time is like a river
Flowing through the world
Time is like a river
Running round and round
