I walked back down
The river bend road
Gathered up a couple good stones
Down to the water
Went looking a load
I wasn't very far from home
Well I saw my face at the water's edge
The man with the heavy heart
Every now and then he feels so close
And every now and then so far
Tell me
Where did the young man go
The one in the water that I used to know
Where did the young man go
Did he just grow tired
Did he just grow old
The face I saw was a younger man
A little more sure of his ways
Blissful fool didn't understand
Hadn't seen enough in his day
Ten years time and a wiser mind
It's seems his world has changed
Knowing somehow what I didn't know then
Would I still have done it the same
Tell me
Where did the young man go
The one in the water that I used to know
Where did the young man go
Did he just grow tired
Did he just grow old
There was a time that it came easy for a while
I know it couldn't have be that long ago
Where did the young man go
The one in the water that I used to know
Where did the young man go
Did he just grow tired
Did he just grow old
Where did the young man go
The one in the water that I used to know
Where did the young man go
Did he just grow tired
Did he just grow old
I walked back down
The river bend road
Gathered up a couple good stones
Down to the water
Went looking a load
I wasn't very far from home
