lyrics

I sit down by the flowing river with my head bowed
As I ponder what’s become of my life
Why do we have to be so a like
What I learned from you is never
Say that you’re sorry no goodbyes
Mom bottled up her worry and held all it inside
Did you care for her as you hid behind your pride
An illusion of a man how could you sleep at night
Once your child is born then you have no call
How could you be selfish when you had it all
When I was a child the cold mist made me shiver
You would take me down here by the flowing river
When you left us I saw my mother’s heart break
I will not repeat your myriad mistakes
As I watch the river where it all began
You could never be a tenth of the man that I am
I promise my wife and kids that I will always deliver
Now my head is held high before the flowing river
