Little buddy
Reliant friend
Stream goes strong
Yellow tinge

Forceful power
Sends the water
To the island
It's final destination

I see my friend
Little buddy
Grow from nothing
Knees like putty

I can't help but feel
Scared and quiet
My future is going past me
Responsibilities stacked higher and higher

The road to the future
Is long and twisted
The stream to the past
Is solemn and wistful
