Lyrics

Beyond the edge of town, down this quarry road,
I make my way in the gentle rain.

Just past the carving tree, I find our hidden path,
That takes me down to your remembering.

I hear the river now, the smell of moss and stone,
Water surging past the railroad bridge.

Almost there, I feel you everywhere,
Your gentle touches in this Autumn mist.

Where are you now my love?
Lost inside forever my love,
Floating on the river of time.

I am older now, we were eighteen then,
Yet the time is of no consequence.

It just slips away, feels like yesterday,
We came together by the water's edge.

Here beside this stream, under these evergreens,
Bourne on the current of eternity.

You were mine, beyond time,
Wonder if you ever think of me?

Where are you now my love?
Lost inside forever my love,
Floating on the river of time.

It takes us all, through the rapids and over the falls,
And I must leave behind, this aching heart,
Written in these lines, on the shores,
Of the river of time.
