See the lights out on the water
come and go, to and fro
in the time it takes to find them
you can live, you can die
and nothing stops the river as it goes by
nothing stops the river as it goes.

All alone and all together
every day, come what may
by the time we find each other
we can live, we can die
and nothing stops the river as it flows by
nothing stops the river as it goes.
 

Dark clouds before our eyes
can't face the morning skies
day comes a day too soon
I'm waiting for that silver moon.

Maybe I'm wrong
but I'm feeling like another night
would make it alright.

Twilight is fading through
seems like I'm fading too
how can I believe it's real
when nothing starts to stop this wheel?
  

High flying glider, spread your wings
flying high on a cloud
born on the air, spiral around
so busy making circles
you never touch the ground.

You see the sea, feel the sky
don't know where you go when you die
don't know the answers
to what's in my mind
riding on the wind and turning with the tide.

Life takes you up, it brings you down
changes the pain that remains
keep moving fast, though the wind and the rain
and if the world keeps spinning round
you'll be back again
