The River of Time

sound of a clock intro Verse 1 Time is a river that never stands still, Flowing through valleys, over every hill. It carries our laughter, our tears and our names, Leaving behind only echoes and frames. We reach for the moments that slipped through our hands, Like grains of sand scattered across distant lands. But no matter how desperately we try, Time keeps moving beneath the sky. Chorus You can't stop time, You can't turn it around, You can't rewind the clock To a sweeter sound. You can't pause the world, Can't freeze a single day, Time keeps writing its story As it carries us away. Verse 2 Yesterday fades like a star at dawn, Gone in a heartbeat, forever withdrawn. The roads that we traveled are lost in the mist, Filled with the moments we'll always miss. Every second is precious, every breath a flame, Nothing stays forever, nothing remains the same. The future keeps calling from somewhere unknown, And time walks its path alone. Bridge If I could hold one moment longer, If I could relive one perfect night, I'd still watch it slip between my fingers, Disappearing with the light. Final Chorus You can't stop time, You can't bring it back, You can't erase the miles From the endless track. You can't pause the beating Of the universe inside, Time is the river, And we're along for the ride. Outro The clock keeps turning, The stars still shine, We belong to eternity, But never to time.
