River of Time

I was looking back at faded dreams from yesterday
Like a brush from my past that painted the evening sky
But I couldn't hold on, the current so strong, that kept rolling by
And all of the colors bled into the river of time

The innocent child fades into the mist on the river of time
An angry young man is shaking his fist on the river of time
Roll on, river of time
Rage on, river of time

There are faces and places I hold sacred
Some I've passed along the way
Some live on in memory, some are here with me today
With the rain from a storm, a river is born, winding down to the sea
And the river of time keeps rolling on through eternity

The angry young man learns how to forgive on the river of time
He holds an innocent child in his arms on the river of time
Oh, roll on, river of time
Rage on, river of time, roll on

Roll on, river of time
Rage on, river of time
Roll on, river of time
Rage on, river of time
Roll on
