Life Is A River Letra

since i was a baby my daddy told me life is a circle without end when i was a small boy i thought of the old men that they were wooden and dead give me back my childhood the laughter and the dreams take away the hatred and the suicide machines life is just a river that flows endlessly mankind is a boatrace heading to the sea only some rise only few fall and the least are drowning in the river when i grew older i sailed many oceans met many people, they all were the same the most had a fire that kept their eyes burning eternal youth and the wisdom of age give me back... now i´m an old man i´m talking of rivers look into my eyes and see me burn if infant, if adult, we sit in one boat now and our journey will not end give me back...
