She follows the path of least resistance She doesn't care to see the mountain top She twists and turns with no regard to distance She never comes to a stop And she rolls, she's a river Where she goes time will tell Heaven knows he can't go with her And she rolls all by herself All by herself He's headed for a single destination He doesn't care what's standing in his path He's a line between two points of separation He ends just where it says to on the map And he rolls, he's a highway Where he goes time will tell Heaven knows she can't go with him And he rolls all by himself All by himself Every now and then he offers her a shoulder And every now and then she overflows And every now and then a bridge crosses over It's a moment every lover knows And she rolls (and he rolls) she's a river (he's a highway) Where she goes (where he goes) time will tell Heaven knows she can't go with him (he can't go with her) And she rolls all by herself And he rolls all by himself Fare thee well
