As I look down
At this river
That winds on forever
From my haven in the stars
I have to see where it leads
I am remembering
Life on the rivers
Life that I see
Flowing through the canyons
Of my mind
Teeming with life
Giving life
Taking life
I remember
Rivers that have known me
And I have loved them

Nope. Didn’t like it. LOVED IT!
“Flow on, lovely river, flow gently along
By your waters so clear sounds the lark’s merry song
On your green banks I wander where first I did join
With you, lovely Molly, the rose of Mooncoin. ”
Great lyrics! Thanks Chris. ☺
