"The River (Full Band)" lyrics

Times they are a-changing, and
Times they are a-moving
And everything I ever knew will never be the same

I lie awake in the same old way
The salt in the air it is calling me
And I know I'll follow, I don't think about it anymore

As the summer ends I think of our last goodbye
It's hard to imagine the seasons without you by my side and I
Know this winter is going to be especially cold

Like the river I'll all along
Today I'm here tomorrow I'm gone

I saw a group of birds passing by
They were moving like a school of fish in the sky
I'll hold onto that moment and keep it close to me

'Cause it's times like that that I feel so small
And I'm humbled and I feel one with it all
And my roots dig deep and my branches are so high

Like the river I'll all along
Today I'm here tomorrow I'm gone
Like the river I'll all along
Today I'm here tomorrow I'm gone

I've walked and I've walked and I still have so far to tread I just
Need to keep afloat with the birds inside my head and the
Fluttering inside my chest

Like the river I'll all along
Today I'm here tomorrow I'm gone
Like the river I'll all along
Today I'm here tomorrow I'm gone
