Lyrics
Melody and lyrics by Brent Bennett
Lyrics:
The river cuts through the canyon
Ten thousand years
Witness to the changing world all around us
Seasons come and go
Nations rise and fall
The form I am today will soon be a memory
Where are you going
Carried to the sea
When life is breathing all around you
Take me with you
Turn my spirit free
Rush into my veins
Leave your legacy
Here I am in the moment
How we came to be
Occupying the air for a glimpse of time
Fragile quality
Someday will escape me
And all I am inside is all I will ever be
Where are you going
Carried to the sea
When life is breathing all around you
Take me with you
Turn my spirit free
Rush into my veins
Leave your legacy
