As in the discription inspired by a question one of my sons asked me years ago.
Lyrics
Where
[01/01/00]
[A]
Where is the river running too?
Will it ever reach the sea?
Where is the river running too?
My young one once asked me.
[B]
It's running towards the ocean, so blue
to its mother's waiting breast.
And only when it reaches her side
is when it will stop and rest.
Break:
[A]
Where is the ocean rolling too?
Will it reach the distant shore?
Where is the ocean rolling too?
Asked my young one wanting more.
[B]
It's rolling in all directions
and will touch many lands.
As it has for millions of years
since the world began.
Break:
Where is the earth headed too?
Will pollution make it die?
Where is the earth headed too?
Said my young one, concern in his eyes.
[B]
The earth's future looks bleak at times
with an uncertain end.
But I believe she will survive
having you as a friend.
[A]
Where will I be going to?
When I am older and on my own?
Where will I be going to?
Will I be left all alone?
[B]
Your life will run like the river
and roll like the oceans of old.
Your future's hidden in mystery.
You must wait and watch it unfold.
[Tag]
Your life will run like the river
and roll on like the oceans of old.
Your future's hidden in mystery.
Wait and watch it unfold.
