[Verse 1]
The road was long
Our steps were new
The storms of innocence
Strong and fresh they blew
Directions turned
Love changing hands
We stood like gods before
Our maps and plans

[Chorus]
But all
All things must change
So don't look back
Just walk away

[Verse 2]
That morning dawn
With no regrets
We stood in line, we laughed
In silhouette
On the learning ground
The place we loved the best
That was our final time
Out in the west
[Chorus]
But all
All things must change
So don't look back
Just walk away
Walk away

[Bridge]
Now the cars come like rivers
Night comes like madness
Songs come like trains
Headlights flash in the darkness
Memories twist in the rain
And we feel these shimmering moments
Like silk, the flags of our days
And the past is only the part
Of life we've thrown away

[Verse 3]
The river's dark
In constant flow
Swollen by winter streams
And the melting snow
I still see your face
Across the miles
To where some kindness showed
Our fate entwined
[Chorus]
But all
All things must change
So don't look back
Just walk away

But all
All things must change
Don't look back
Just walk away
