Young Man

I walked back down the river bend road Gathered up a couple good stones Down to the water, went looking for a load Wasn't very far from home I saw my face at the water's edge The man with the heavy heart Every now and then he feels so close But every now and then so far, tell me Where did the young man go? The one in the water that I used to know When did he lose that fire? Did he just grow old? Did he just grow tired The face I saw was a younger man A little more sure of his ways Blissful fool didn't understand Hadn't seen enough in his day Ten years' time and a wiser mind Seems his world has changed Knowing somehow what I didn't know then Would I still have done it the same? Tell me Where did the young man go? The one in the water that I used to know When did he lose that fire? Did he just grow old? Did he just grow tired? There was a time that it came easy for a while I know it couldn't have be that long ago Where did the young man go? The one in the water that I used to know When did he lose that fire? Did he just grow old? Did he just grow tired? Where did the young man go? The one in the water that I used to know When did he lose that fire? Did he just grow old? Did he just grow tired? Where did the young man go? The one in the water that I used to know When did he lose that fire? Did he just grow old? Did he just grow tired? I walked back down the river bend road Gathered up a couple good stones Down to the water, went looking for a load Wasn't very far from home
