Strange, how we don't know much about tomorrow And we're living in yesterday But all I know Is how the seasons come and go Making me long for the simple days Now as the Leaves are turning red and yellow And I'm watching the river cry I wonder why Was it really meant to be Holding the key to the simple days When I was almost flying Over water I could touch the heavens With my fingers Now I'm walking the distance Walking my way home I could see the beauty of a lover I could feel the rhythm of desire And now I'm waking the distance Slowly walking in silence Faith, as the road is getting dark and narrow And I'm keeping my head up high Cuz I believe The river flowing wild and free Making me see the simple days When I was almost flying Over water I could touch the heavens With my fingers Now I'm walking the distance Walking my way home I could see the beauty of a lover I could feel the rhythm of desire And now I'm waking the distance Slowly walking in silence I was almost flying Over water I could touch the heavens With my fingers And now I'm walking the distance Walking my way home I could see the beauty of a lover I could feel the rhythm of desire And now I'm waking the distance Slowly walking in silence Rain, how you're pouring down my face, like teardrops And I wish that these memories could fall apart To ease the beating of my heart Slowly, believing I want touch, want to feel, want to live The simple days
