The road was long Our steps were new The storms of innocence Strong and fresh they blew Directions turned Love changing hands We stood like gods before Our maps and plans But all things must change So don't look back, just walk away
That morning dawn With no regrets We stood in line we laughed In silhouette On the learning ground The place we loved the best That was our final time Out in the west But all things must change So don't look back, just walk away
Now the cars come like rivers Night comes like madness Songs come like trains Headlights flash in the darkness Memories twist in the rain And we feel those flickering moments Like silk there the flags of our days And the past is only the part of life We've thrown away
The river's dark In constant flow Swollen by winter streams And the melting snow I see your face Across the miles To where some kindness showed Our fate entwined But all things must change So don't look back, just walk away
