Time is like a river

Time is like a river
My mother used to say
All is in the river.
It could be cold, it could be wild
sometimes soft and clear
So take a look around here

You know,
time is like a river
Flowing through the world
Time is like a river
Running round and round

Time is like a river
It slowly slips away
We are all passengers
and the water gave us troubles
When the stream was growing
We must find a shelter

Time is like a river
Flowing through the world
Time is like a river
Running round and round

Time is like a river
My mother used to say
All is in the river
Flowing round and round the world
Running around and round

Time is like a river
Flowing through the world
Time is like a river
Running round and round
