Face in the mirror these lines are getting clearer I see a stranger that I hardly know I know it's only just the fleeting reflection And it'll end no matter which way we go Where we go nobody knows But the river is going to take you home Roll on, roll on On like a skipping stone Gravity is going to pull ya down But the river is going to take you home Roll on, roll on On like a skipping stone Throw it fast keep it up while it lasts But the river is going to take you home On like a skipping stone We should be living like tomorrow may not be given to us Every day is not guaranteed Only accepting it's a blessing, your presence 'Til you discover what it is that you need Where we go nobody knows But the river is going to take you home Roll on, roll on On like a skipping stone Gravity is going to pull ya down But the river is going to take you home Roll on, roll on On like a skipping stone Throw it fast keep it up while it lasts But the river is going to take you home On like a skipping On like a skipping stone If you don't listen you'll be missing the vision You won't be ready when the river bends Every day can not be taken for granted So when you fall you got to get up again Roll on, roll on On like a skipping stone Gravity is going to bring you down But the river is going to take you home Roll on, roll on On like a skipping stone Throw it fast keep it up while it lasts But the river is going to take you home On like a skipping stone
