From We Shall Go Forth!
Words and Music by Margie Adam

You can’t push a river
You can’t hold the sun
It seems like life is telling me
The things that can’t be done.

You can’t hold a lover
If you don’t love yourself
It seems like life is telling me
To search within myself.

You can’t push a river
You can’t stop the dawn
It’s time that we understood
Changing things inside us must go on and on and on and on.

You can’t play at caring
The odds are you’ll lose
It seems like life is telling me
The risks in games we choose.

You can’t push a river
You can’t stop the dawn
It’s time that we understood
Changing things inside us must go on and on and on and

On my way to somewhere
Would you like to come along?
It seems like life is telling me
That sharing makes you strong
Sharing makes you strong.
