[00:08.10] We floated downstream like swans in the sun
[00:14.51] Surrounded by friends and lovers
[00:18.58] We watched on with smiles beaming so bright
[00:23.80] The river behind them, the fading daylight
[00:30.83] I knew her back from when she was young
[00:36.70] Those days poured out faster than rounds from a gun
[00:42.42] Scattered like shells and lost to the sea
[00:47.54] Like the river the days move rapidly
[00:55.33] I have all these memories, I don't know what for
[01:01.40] I have them and I can't help it
[01:05.87] Some overflow and spill like waves
[01:11.11] Some I will harbour
[01:12.99] For all of my days
[01:17.56] I burned liked oil, you grew like a flower
[01:23.98] Rising toward your magical hour
[01:29.00] I was not yours and you were not mine
[01:34.03] Our true love finds us when it is time
[01:41.60] We drove back downtown
[01:44.72] Wasted and spent
[01:47.89] Down highways that I remember
[01:52.41] Happy for her and happy for me
[01:57.18] The old times and the new to uncover
[02:03.96] I laid down my head, in love with the night
[02:09.63] With my new love beside me, her radiant light
[02:14.84] I faded away, along with my thoughts
[02:19.85] Like a dream and I trail off mystically
