It moves and flows like a memory
And never comes back to you
It sparkles and clings like a melody
But somehow makes you feel blue
It’s an up and down it’s a back and forth
Sometimes like going nowhere
A broken wheel a stormy sea
A laughter you can not share

I don’t know where I’m going and what to do
Where this road leads and what tomorrow may brings
Don’t know what the next few years will be
My life’s like a river - and a river wants to run free

So just receive what you get from it
It is what it is
An up and down and a high or low
Sometimes running fast sometimes creeping slow
A rolling wheel or a stormy sea
And a thousand laughters to share

And I don’t know where I’m going or what to do
Where this road leads and what tomorrow may brings
Don’t know what the next few years will be
My life’s like a river - and a river wants to run free
