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...
