River of Life

22 years ago I crossed the water 22 years ago I left this land 42 years ago I had a daughter 42 years ago she took my hand As I wondered through the days, the nights, the moments I pondered what would come of her some day Her eyes were wide, her spirit filled with fortune What's hers, what's mine, what's destined here to stay And so we stroll on down the line There'll be no warning, there'll be no sign And so we roll and so we flow down the river of life 22 years ago I left with secrets 22 years ago, too much to tell 42 years of old she'd come to find them Tuck them deep inside her wishing well As she wondered through the days, the nights, the moments She pondered what had come of me this day Her eyes were wide, her spirit filled with water That wishing well had sprung to life today And so we stroll on down the line There'll be no warning, there'll be no sign And so we roll and so we flow down the river We flow down the river We flow down the river Of life
