Lyrics

heading off on a river at peace in the cool of an evening, heading off on a river of light, be a part of a river at night. nice to be on a river sometimes, like a junebug traveling, heading off on a ribbon of song, been away from the river too long. good to be on a river somewhere, like a milkweed traveling, heading off on a ribbon of dreams, be a part of a river it seems. can you tell me how long must i travel on?, i won't be looking up old friends, i won't be looking up old friends ever again. i spent my life taking my time and i can't change anything, take a look at my river of light, be a part of a river at night. nice to be on a river at peace, like a junebug traveling, heading off on a river at last, my tears will be all in the past. good to be on a river somewhere, like a milkweed traveling, heading down where the water runs deep, down deep where the fish are asleep now. can you tell me how long must i travel on?, i won't be looking up old friends, i won't be looking up old friends ever again. trouble don't mean nothing to me, and i had my share of it, heading off on a river of light, be a part of a river at night. nice to be on a river at peace, in the cool of an evening, heading off on the silver moon light, maybe love'll find me tonight. good to be on a river somewhere, like a milkweed traveling. heading off on a ribbon of dreams, be a part of a river it seems. can you tell me how long must i travel on?, i won't be looking up old friends, i won't be looking up old friends ever again, ever again.
