All Things Must Change

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

But all things must change

So don't look back, just walk away

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

But all things must change

So don't look back, just walk away

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 those flickering moments

Like silk the're the flags of our days

And the past is only the part of life

We've thrown away

The river's dark

In constant flow

Swollen by winter streams

And the melting snow

I see your face

Across the miles

To where some kindness showed

Our fate entwined

But all things must change

So don't look back, just walk away
