Lars Eriksson - Like the flowing river lyrics

rate me

Picture yourself as the flowing river

Nothing ever stays the same

Be like the flowing river

Live your life without shame

Counting the stars is an impossible task

And you won't ever find someone to ask

Reaching out for all that you don't have

Life is going to give it to you some day

Flow down the river of yourself

Everything you pass will be your own

And where you will get you'll be leaving

And nothing in the world is ever owned

Float very peaceful, reflect the stars above

Tomorrow you might be storming down a hill

And as you flow on you will feel somewhat wider

Experiences will fill you up - it's a good thing

No one ever feels at home

Home is up above and somewhere else

A rose isn't something very strong

But it knows how to carry on

I used to be like the poisonous stillness

Stuck in the waters of my brain

What drove me from there was fed up with illness

If I stayed I would have gone insane

And I know that life won't give me anything but good and bad

It's all that I will get, it's all that I ever had

And I feel so grateful for all that I meet

It's as if I was never born alone
