The River Flows

When the rapids crash into me And there's a hole in my canoe When the white waves almost tip me And there's nothing I can do Except hold a little tighter and hope that I stay higher than the tide I've learned I'm just along for this ride Cuz time will keep on going The wind will keep on blowing Gravity will keep on pulling me way down low Trees will keep on growing The earth will keep on turning This life will keep on showing what I still don't know I throw my hands up in this boat won't even try to row And just go wherever the river flows When I'm sinking under water And I'm forced to change my plans I wanna always be the author But I just have to accept That the current's gonna push me To wherever it thinks I should be and maybeI'll finally see That time will keep on going The wind will keep on blowing Gravity will keep on pulling me way down low Trees will keep on growing The earth will keep on turning This life will keep on showing what I still don't know I throw my hands up in this boat won't even try to row And just go wherever the river flows Time will keep on going The wind will keep on blowing Gravity will keep on pulling me way down low Trees will keep on growing The earth will keep on turning This life will keep on showing what I still don't know It's like this world has a mind of its own So I'm just going and floating Wherever the river flows
