Same River Twice

After all we had it coming,

The kind of life we knew

Was way too much to ask

The scene between us

Playing perfect in my mind,

But I'll die if I'm just living in the past

I used to take it all for granted,

Back before the day

You never said goodbye

But you can't know the change

That everyday will bring,

Like the cold that froze

The flood of you and I

The chance to live and love

Might simply slip away

Lost beneath the surface

Of an ordinary day

So jump on in heart first every time

Life is never the same river twice

I barely got the chance to know you,

But no one ever said that life is really fair

Still I promised that I'd find

Something good in the sadness

That my heart will have to bear

So here it is another sunrise,

Another chance to light

The darkness on the land

The hopes and dreams

That barely get me through the night,

They'd be easy with you here

To lend a hand

The chance to live and love

Might simply slip away

Lost beneath the surface

Of an ordinary day

So jump on in heart first every time

Life is never the same river twice
