Verse When I was four I saw the sun Southbound dreams had just begun Running free through fields of gold Unrealized my tales unfold Verse 2 At twenty years I wrote my name In letters sent without a flame Hoping love would find its way From the North it stayed away Chorus Different paths that we all choose Sometimes win and sometimes lose Life it goes as rivers flow Taking turns we never know Verse 3 Now I sit at fifty-four Dreams of youth I've stored and more Memories like autumn leaves Scattered hearts and lost beliefs Chorus Different paths that we all choose Sometimes win and sometimes lose Life it goes as rivers flow Taking turns we never know Bridge Years may pass and hearts may mend Journeys find their own new end North to south and in between Every life is like a dream
