Along Time's Ripples - Crossing the River of Time, Laguna Woods, 라구나 우즈

Crossing the River of Time
[Verse 1:]
Standing here in the flow of years gone by
A journey long, with joys and tears that fly
My heart once full of regret and sympathy
Now seeks to set those burdens free
[Chorus:]
Crossing the river of time
I've come to see
All things must pass, but what remains
Is love's eternity
[Verse 2:]
Looking back on days that came before
Some wishes unfulfilled, but gratitude in store
With pure heart, I embrace what life has shown
And walk the path that's yet unknown
[Chorus:]
Crossing the river of time
I've come to see
All things must pass, but what remains
Is love's eternity
[Bridge:]
To those who follow in our wake
I'll say with head held high, no shame to take
"I've lived a life I need not hide"
With gentle heart, I'll let it all abide
[Verse 3:]
This final journey, bright and clear
I'll live it sacred, with reverent cheer
Accepting all that comes my way
In peace, I'll walk from day to day
[Chorus:]
Crossing the river of time
I've come to see
All things must pass, but what remains
Is love's eternity

Along Time's Ripples
[Verse 1]
Down the river of years, where ripples play,
My life has flowed in its own way.
Sometimes rushing, sometimes slow,
In those ripples, my reflection shows.
[Chorus]
Along time's ripples, I glide,
My spirit dancing with the tide.
In flowing waves, I find my truth:
A heart forever young in youth.
[Verse 2]
Water droplets leap from stones they meet,
Like challenges I've faced, so fleet.
In calmer pools, I pause to see
The path that's shaped and molded me.
[Chorus]
Along time's ripples, I glide,
My spirit dancing with the tide.
In flowing waves, I find my truth:
A heart forever young in youth.
[Bridge]
The ripples taught me day by day,
Life's but a series of waves at play.
Fast and slow, they ebb and flow,
Each moment helping me to grow.
[Verse 3]
Clear waters mirror my lined face,
Wisdom earned through time and grace.
The journey left, I'll fill with love,
With gratitude for stars above.
[Chorus]
Along time's ripples, I glide,
My spirit dancing with the tide.
In flowing waves, I find my truth:
A heart forever young in youth.
[Outro]
Along time's ripples, I'll float on,
My youthful spirit never gone.
My life flows on, a shining stream,
In ripples bright, my soul will gleam.
