Lyrics

I live a new life every day
Every day my dreams get bigger
I may never make a big wave
But I can always be a river

The day becomes an old man
And its grey winds surround me like a breath from a ghost
I feel the crush of its old wrinkled hand
And the evening lays on me more heavy than most

I recall when the new day began
There were smiles, there were faces; I heard my dad laugh
There was hope but there was never a plan
And I felt that the world would just show me my path

And I live a new life every day
Every day my dreams get bigger
I may never make a big wave
But I can always be the river

At night I can see my whole life
What I wished for, what I was was never the same
But the dark never brought me much light
And regret for me is just a tired mans' game

And I live a new life every day
Every day my dreams get bigger
I may never make a big wave
But I can always be the river

Some days I reach 'cross the ocean
Some days I reach for the moon
I can say at the end of each day
Both days ended too soon
If I made you smile, if you can say that you know me
If I've held you like a good friend should
If we've ever cried together, than I'm good

And I live a new life every day
Every day my dreams get bigger
I may never make a big wave
But I can always be the river
