Lyrics River Of Time - Jorma Kaukonen

River Of Time

A river of time, it marks our life
From birth to death, there is no rhyme
A chance to meet, along the way
Will we go or, will we stay?
There is no sound of, tolling bells
The task on earth is living well
I dreamt my grandma, held my hand
Felt the stranger, in this land
Her ancient voice called, out to me
And have your choices, plain to see
It?
s time to move on, down the line
All you floatin?
in a river of time
The banks were shrouded, in the fog
From the shore, a barkin?
dog
Recalled a time, long forgot
The flowers there, Forget-Me-Nots
I saw a wave from, friends of mine
As I rowed down the river of time
It might be nice I, could have said
To speak to loved ones, long since dead
Lives still flow there, on the shore
And I shan?
t see them, anymore
Not on this side, but in dreams
And dreams aren?
t always what they seem
The river flows, it?
s just begun
My daughter follows, and my son
When my time ends, I?
ll rest on land
And while I slumber, they?
ll still stand
They?
re a part of that endless line
We all still float in a river of time
As I float through, another day
There are no waves to, rock my way
Water lifts, my spirits high
And in this moment, you and I
Feel the current, flow so fine
As we float down a river of time
