Just Around The Riverbend

What I love most about rivers is
You can's step in the same river twice
The water's always changing,
Always flowing
But people, I guess, can't live like that
We all must say a price
To be safe, we lose our chance
Of ever knowing
What's around the riverbend,
Waiting just around the riverbend

I look once more
Just around the riverbend
Beyond the shore
Where the gulls fly free
Don't know what for
What I dream the day might send?
Just around the riverbend
For me
Coming for me
I feel it there beyond those trees
Or right behind these waterfalls
Can I ignore that sound
Of distant drumming
For a beautiful sturdy wife
Who gives beautiful sturdy kids
And never dreams that
Something might be coming?
Just around the riverbend
Just around the riverbend
I look once more
Just around the riverbend
Beyond the shore
Somewhere past the sea
Don't know what for...
Why do all my dreams extend
Just around the riverbend?
Just around the riverbend.
