Mitch Rocket - Like the River

Remember when we used to hang down by the lake
Skipping stones and smiling for each other's sake
In those days we thought we'd never grow old
Never fit into our mothers' and fathers' mold
Like the river that just rolls on by
Like the streetlights that only shine at night
I'll be waiting for you to come on by
And if you don't, I guess this is goodbye
Many years we spent just lazing on that shore
Vivid sunsets shook us to our very core
A spirit flew with us from day to day
Animating every offhand word that we would say
Like the river that just rolls on by
Like the streetlights that only shine at night
I'll be waiting for you to come on by
And if you don't, I guess this is goodbye
When that train rolls in from a hundred miles away
Will I recognize your face and what will I say?
Have you changed, have you been living in a dream?
So much water under bridges I have never seen
Like the river that just rolls on by
Like the streetlights that only shine at night
I'll be waiting for you to come on by
And if you don't, I guess this is goodbye
Oh if you don't I guess this is goodbye
Oh if you don't I guess this is goodbye
If you don't I guess this is goodbye
