Same River Twice
--words and music by Michael Stanley

You wanna be on the lookout
For a change in the breeze
You wanna be in the moment
Before it just leaves
Or you could take it all for granted
And watch it all just slip away ...

	Just like that river when it rolls to the sea
	Always changing that's how it's gonna be
	And you're paying attention
	Or you're paying the price 'cause
	There ain't no way
	You ever cross that same river twice ...
	There ain't no way ... 

You gotta hold on to something
Or you just blow away
You gotta remember one thing
At the end of the day
Or you could take it all for granted
And watch it all just slip away ... 

	Just like that river when it rolls to the sea
	Always changing that's how it's gonna be
	And you're paying attention
	Or you're paying the price 'cause
	There ain't no way
	You ever cross that same river twice ...
	Ain't gonna be no way ... 

		Yeah it might be a matter of perception
		Or it might be a matter of degree
		It took me some time now
		But I came around and I finally see ... 

Or you could take it all for granted
And watch it all just slip away ... 

	Just like that river when it rolls to the sea
	Always changing that's how it's gonna be
	And you're paying attention
	Or you're paying the price 'cause
	There ain't no way
	You ever cross that same river twice ...
	There ain't no way ...
