If it's time to tell your story
Tell it like it was, I've found
It's better just to lay it down
Than hold it all alone
And if your tears are finally falling
You don't have to hide your eyes
No one should ever have to be
Ashamed of letting go
If they reminisce about me
I won't blame you if you find
You have to walk away
Try again some other time
And if you want to laugh without me
Believe me, it's ok, I know
In order to go forward
Got to leave some pain behind
A river runs through everybody
Winding through the canyons of
Our souls, people young and old
And on the other side
So if you're scared to just allow me
To flow in memory, remember
That means I'll always be
Forever carved in time
