song/poem about watching a love one leave you
Let me slow down time so you can tell tales of your life
To generations to come stories like the ocean's rushing tides

I don't want to be standing in line to see the sky divide
Waiting for the fall down, it has turned out quite a crowd

You can't change which way the river flows
No one's told you because no one knows
Keep on walking down this road
It's where all the bad things go

Let me paint you a history that you'd be proud to call your own
Skipping years and centuries until you've done all that can be done

I wished upon a star so that it would make you whole
Struck a deal with the devil, your life in return for my soul

You can't change which way the river flows
No one's told you because no one knows
Keep on walking down this road
It's where all the bad things go
