nothing here seems to last
joy in an instant
sorrow in a flash
next moment, nothing's wrong
so quick you coulda missed it

because time flows, there it goes
no sense in wonderin'
where it came from
no way to see where it goes
time flows, dip your toes
and do not beware the currents
who couldn't mind you
having not a mind to mind you
only places to go to
anything to show you
who knows where you'll go to
(this same spot, by the river)
