There comes a time in life When we cross the River of No Return We have to go and move on ahead We have to leave the bridges that we burned. There are bridges over troubled waters I guess that’s what good friends are for But sometimes the bridge just crumbles And the foundations hit the floor Into the River of No Return it goes You get whipped, you pay the piper But in the end you get to call the tune And then, my friend, you’ll be so much wiser. Maybe you’ve got your finger on the trigger It’s a hard, hard lesson you’re going to learn You’re gonna have to take a beating And you’re on the River Of No Return. It runs on and on through the Jungle You don’t look back; you don’t know what you’ll find You’ve been there and you’re past it Through the wastelands of your mind. It’s the law of the Jungle my friend The Nature of the Beast Lying in wait for all of us Save yourself, to say the least. It’s a hard, hard decision To stand and watch your bridges burn But it’s a hard, hard lesson That we all have to learn. It’s not easy; I know it’s not easy... Everything you had, everything you believed To see it go up in smoke, fade away And finally accept you were deceived. Once in your life you will see There’s no where left to run When you cross the River of No Return And your heart comes undone.
