Platte River Bend Lyrics

Flowers like people need roots if they are to grow

I'm more like a tumbleweed wandering where the wind blows

Mother, she said to me, "Girl, you need a home"

But there's nothing like four walls to make a soul feel alone

I think I'll ride it out just to see what's around the bend

It's not a life if you know how it's going to end

No matter what path you choose there will be a price to pay

You can lose everything or find yourself along the way

I can live with regrets but not with never knowing

When the train stops, swing your bag and keep on going

I think I'll ride it out just to see what's around the bend

It's not a life if you know when it's going to end

Don't worry about tomorrow

Troubles will come and will go

This is the moment your whole life's been building toward

So, breathe it in

Breathe it in

I think I'll ride it out just to see what's around the bend

It's not a life if you know when it's going to end
