The River and the Wind Tanya Tucker

I seemed to know right from the start
Where I was goin' and how far
Like the river as she flows
I just always seemed to know

But you were born beneath the restless moon
Your heart still sings a wanderin' tune
Like the wind cannot be bound, oh
Walls would only tie you down

For awhile we traveled
In the same directions
But parted before the journey's end

I stayed within my boundaries
You sailed toward open skies
Like the river and the wind
Like the river and the wind

I always flowed between the lines
You followed roads that had no signs
The river knows where she belongs, yeah
The wind, he never finds a home

For awhile we traveled
In the same directions
But parted before the journey's end
