You did your best to have everything by your side
You focused on the little things that made you smile
Who would’ve thought you were to leave it all behind
And never look back at your door

You now find yourself in the eyes of the unknown
There is no place anymore you would call your own
The stories that you tell are flowers that have grown
Into beautiful memories

All along the river
You’ll be moving on
And every time you settle
You wish you were gone

Composing all the wildest songs that can’t be sung
All the craziest words that never will be told
The things that only you and yourself understand
Forever stay inside of you

But after all there is not much they need to know
This little world of yours keeps spinning all alone
Yet if someone wants in then open up your door
The two of you will make it last

All along the river
You’ll be moving on
And every time you settle
You wish you were gone

You say you like the world
You say you won’t come back
My friend, just don’t
Leave anything behind

All along the river
You’ll be moving on
And every time you settle
You wish you were gone

All along the river
You’ll be moving on
And every time you settle
You wish you were gone
