The River with No Name

Maybe this time we will get it right

Every step's just a step until the one where you stop

They say the third time's a charm

Yeah, well, how about the ninth?

Or maybe look at this a different way

You only know where you've been

Not where you're going to be

If you learn as you go, you gotta go just to learn

So take a step into the river with no name

And you'll be carried off into a horizon that you've never known

Don't close your eyes, it'll all be okay

Come dry yourself beside the fire

Made of all those former worries that you've carried inside you

There's no need for names

Just let them burn and warm yourself by the flames

We thought this time would be a different case

That we know where we are and we know what we want

It only lasted two years

But, hey, that's better than one

So back to throwing ideas at the wall

My throwing arm is getting good

Yeah, I could do it all day

And you know I'd be lying if I said it wasn't fun

Let's take a step into the river with no name

And we'll be carried off into a horizon that we've never known

Don't close your eyes, it'll all be okay

Come dry yourself beside the fire

Made of all those former worries that you've carried inside you

There's no need for names

Just let them burn, we'll warm ourselves with the flames
