River Of Time Lyrics - River Of Time - Jorma Kaukonen

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 

Its 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 shant see them, anymore 

Not on this side, but in dreams 

And dreams arent always what they seem 

The river flows, its just begun 

My daughter follows, and my son 

When my time ends, Ill rest on land 

And while I slumber, theyll still stand 

Theyre 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
