Flowin' river, now a still lakeMakes you shiver when youThink of what they takeWhere's your futurewhen you've lost todayDon't wash your tears awaySeek the vision, and see the giftShow the children there's, something leftWhen they grow older they'll, learn to sayDon't wash your tears awayChorus:Can't stop the whiskey can't stop the wineCan't stop a good friend from dyingDon't know the answerbut I've gotta keep tryingCan't stop a good friend from dyingGather moments that add up our lifeSometimes regrets that cut like a knifeStart seeing the damageonly years after we're throughDon't let it take a hold of you
