Song Description
Some days, life is smooth sailing. Other days, a storm appears out of nowhere to turn life upside down. You can learn to steer the boat...but not the river.

Lyrics
RIVER SONG
What will I do?
Where will I go?
Who will I be?
When will I know?
Life is like a river
And the steady flowof time
Means the journey's always changing
But at least I'm sure it's mine.
CHORUS
I set out on the river
With a suitcase and a friend
But I didn't see the rapids
That were churning up ahead.
The suitcase never washed ashore
And the friend was swept away
The sky was streaked with sadness
When I heard the North wind say:
CHORUS
Further down the river
All the reasons will be clear
But for now the lonely echoes
Call to mind my every fear.
CHORUS
