TOO MANY RIVERS lyrics
by Joel Sattler

I’ve crossed too many rivers
to ever go home again
crossed too many rivers
and the trail must come to an end
too many rivers
too many rivers to cross
I once was found
but now I'm lost

The road it was so long
the wind it was so strong
the right it was so wrong
way back when there and then
the night was like a song
that comes back round again
the message in the stars
was told me once again

too many rivers
to ever go home again
too many rivers
too many fences to mend
too much to be forgiven
too much to comprehend
too many rivers
not what I intended
too many rivers
once more around the bend

I’ve crossed too many rivers
to ever go home again
crossed too many rivers
and the trail must come to an end
too many rivers
too many rivers to cross
I once was found
but now I'm lost

I didn't come this far
to only come this far
so tell me where to find you
tell you where you are
too many rivers flowing
into a wine-dark sea
I feel you all around me
in my memory

They say you can't step in the same river twice, but by repeating how many times you cross, metaphorically, into territory, you verify that you have gone too far forward to return where you once were. I really like these lyrics!
