Down This River

All this time Jack has to sit upon the sand
While the Ocean rolls, into his hands
And all of these feelings, that cause him very much pain
Crash upon him now, just like a wave

It's just the way it goes, just the way time bends
Well I know we've had a lot of fun, but all good things must end
And everything that's gold, gems and pearls too
All the riches of the universe, they are temporary too

So Jack didn't really know that life doesn't wait
Rivers they flow, into the Ocean
And like Autumn leaves
Raindrops they fall, bringing teardrops from Heaven

All this time Jane has to sit and wonder why
While several teardrops fall, from her eyes
And all of these memories, keep droppin' in (and pourin') like rain
Forming puddles now, in her brain

It's just the way it goes, just the way time bends
Well I know we've had a lot of fun, but all good things must end
And everything that's gold, gems in powder blue
All the riches of the universe, they are temporary too

So Jane didn't really know that life doesn't wait
Rivers they flow, into the Ocean
But lime blue skies
And friends all around, make these memories golden

It's not the way you want it, it's not the way it seems
When the wind goes back and forth, it floats across your memory
It's not the way you want it, it's not the way it seems
When the wind goes back and forth, it floats across your memory
