And out long the jungle river
The mists of morning cling to her sides
Like hungry mouths till the sun
Gently lifts them to the sky

The time has gone once again
When the world is too much within us
And the force of our own footsteps
Echoes loudly within our minds

The time has gone once again
When the leaves have fallen from the trees
And our tears have frozen over
In our eyes so not to fall

And out along the frozen river
The memory of love sits and waits
For lovers as they skate
Away from sorrow into the past

Please don't look back
You can hear the song with your ears
Please don't turn around
Learn to believe what can't be seen

The time has gone once again
When the words tear away from our tongues
Like children as they grown
Into the world and stand alone

And out along the flowing river
The water washes clean and so cold
And the wind blows in our faces
As we turn toward the stars
