So the River Flows (From the Film "Those Who Serve")

The mornings they keep comin’ Like a freight train rollin’ through his head Sometimes torn, sometimes runnin’ From the stories that he’s left unsaid He is not the same child Those days are gone His road is worn and grown wild But he paved it on his own Nobody really knows What the world is gonna throw your way Only time will say Seen him swim against the tide Seen him dream, I’ve seen him fly and then Fall back to earth again And so the river flows And so the river flows So the river flows Wherever it goes nobody knows There’s darkness in the edges And light shines where you least expect Wanna meet him where his head is Wanna hold him, let him catch his breath He is not the same child Those days are gone He’s walked alone a long while Wondering where he belongs Nobody really knows What the world is gonna throw your way Only time will say Seen him swim against the tide Seen him dream, I’ve seen him fly and then Fall back to earth again And so the river flows So the river flows So the river flows
