The River That I Knew

[Verse 1]
This isn't the river that I knew
This is a different river, this river is new
I don't know just where I'm headed to
I can't say for sure that I ever really knew
Someone hands an empty book
Says "every day is a page you can do whatever to
Don't skip to end before you're through
Do your best not to let it get away from you."

[Chorus]
You say that I am a bad captain
I say that I've been called worse by better
This isn't the river that I knew

[Verse 2]
Everything's available to you
Just get a finger on it, that's all you gotta do
Pull it in and hold it close to you
Do your best not to let it get away from you
Someone hands a big old book to you
Says "Don't read it yourself, let yourself read it to you
Hold on to the parts you think are true
Throw away the parts that seem funny to you"

[Chorus]
You say that I am a bad captain
I say that I've been called worse by better
This isn't the river that I knew
