How The River Flows

They said it would be easy But they don't know the truth Running from myself But myself's immune Always asking why And why I must comply 'Cause you run and you run but there's nowhere to hide 'Cause when the lights go dry There's no place they can't find But I don't know where they all go When the birds begin to fly And there's no one left in sight 'Cause no one knows where they all go How the river flows (the river flows) No one knows (no one knows) Oh how the river flows People come and go but they don't know They say stand up and fight But you're not that kind of guy You run around in the night And you'd never hurt a fly You never know what's true Only know once you've tried 'Cause you only take shots when they feel right 'Cause when the lights go dry There's no place they can't find But I don't know where they all go When the birds begin to fly And there's no one left in sight 'Cause no one knows where they all go 'Cause when the lights go dry There's no place they can't find But I don't know where they all go When the birds begin to fly And there's no one left in sight 'Cause no one knows where they all go Oh how the river flows (the river flows) No one knows (no one knows)
