far down the river run
a bird escapes its cage
a wildcat stalks its prey
a young man turns a page
the waters flow with fate
to join a larger stream
perhaps to bring us pain
perhaps to grant a dream
the planet never stops
its journey round the sun
and love conspires with time
until its day is done
and one man falls asleep
before the dawn will break
as tears of grief must come
another heart will ache
the river's course is long
and no one sees the end
that holds our destiny
the port beyond the bend
