I was lookin' back on faded dreams from yesterday
Like a brush from my past
They painted the evenin' skyBut they couldn't hold on, the current's so strong
I couldn't hold on
They kept rollin' byAnd all of the colors bled into a river of timeThe innocent child fades into the mist on the river of time
An angry young man is shakin' his fist on the river of time
Roll on river of time
Rage on river of timeThere are faces and places I hold sacred
Some I've passed along the way
Some live on in memory, some I've with me todayWith the rain from a storm, a river is born
Windin' down to the sea and the river of time
Keeps on rollin' through eternityThe angry young man learns how to forgive on the river of time
He holds an innocent child in his arms on the river of time
Oh, roll on river of time
Rage on river of time, roll onRoll on river of time
Rage on river of time
Roll on river of time
Rage on river of time
