I seemed to know right from the start where I was goin' and how far
Like the river as she flows I just always seemed to know

But you were born beneath the restlesss moon your heart still sings a wonderin' tune
Like the wind you cannot be bound walls would only tie you down

For awhile we travelled in the same directions
But parted before the journey's end
I stayed within my boundaries you sailed toward open skies
Like the river and the wind like the river and the wind

I always flowed between the lines you followed roads that had no signs
The river knows where she belongs yeah the wind he never finds a home

For awhile we travelled in the same directions...
