Skipping Stone

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
