I heard the music long ago, songs that rent the air Fading in and out at night while I was lying there Voices soft and lonely and later rock and roll Flying across the Rio Grande, straight into my soul Trying to find a reason, trying to find that rhyme Rolling with the river trying to keep time And in the end I wouldn't change a thing, I'd singMusic is the life in me, it's the melody I breatheIt gives me strength in harder times and reason to believe Endless miles of highway, every step hard earned It seems like it was all mapped out, all the twists and turns Still trying to find a reason, trying to find that rhyme Still rolling with the river trying to keep time And in the end I wouldn't change a thing, I'd singAnd in the end I wouldn't change a thing, I'd sing
