Lyrics

[00:13.99] We floated downstream like swans in the sun
[00:20.66] Surrounded by friends and lovers
[00:26.37] We watched on with smiles beaming so bright
[00:32.94] The river behind them, the fading daylight
[00:39.47] I knew her back from when she was young
[00:46.89] Those days poured out faster than rounds from a gun
[00:54.09] Scattered like shells and lost to the sea
[01:00.96] Like the river the days move rapidly
[01:12.39] I have all these memories, I don't know what for
[01:19.13] I have them and I can't help it
[01:24.97] Some overflow and spill out like waves
[01:31.96] Some I will harbor for all of my days
[01:38.23] I burned liked oil, you bloomed like a flower
[01:45.69] Rising toward your magical hour
[01:52.76] I was not yours and you were not mine
[01:59.27] Our true love finds us when it is time
[02:39.26] We drove back downtown
[02:42.00] Wasted and spent
[02:46.18] Down highways that I remember
[02:52.07] Happy for her and happy for me
[02:58.53] The old times and the new to uncover
[03:05.55] I laid down my head, in love with the night
[03:12.31] With my new love beside me, her radiant light
[03:19.60] I faded away, along with my thoughts
[03:26.15] Like a dream and I trail off mystically
