  1. The River

From the recording Temple Under the Stars

Lyrics

I walked to the river
to watch the water flow so free
And I climbed the mountain
to watch the sunset over me

And maybe I can trust in the
Unfolding nature of the universe as it
Happens through me and listen as I
Walk through the trees
The clarity will come to me

I feel a heavy sorrow
For what we once had
That seemed to slip away
And I wish, that I could grab it
With my two hands, and hold it so dear

But it seems
The most precious things in life
I can't hold onto
And it seems
That they come for a moment so deeply
And then they're gone
And then they're gone
And then they're gone
Will they come again
Will they come again?

And I will mend the pieces of my own heart
With the love of friends
And I will walk to rivers
And climb mountains
To remember that

I can trust in the unfolding nature
of the universe as it happens through me
And be open to the impermanence of it all

And I can trust in the unfolding nature
of the universe as it happens through me
And sing the lessons of all this
Give the love that I can give
And accept what is
And accept what is
And accept what is
And accept what is
