From the album 14:14, released September 1999.
Words: R. Hayes
There's
a little boy on the river
A little boy all alone
The boy throws stones on the water
The little boy has no home
(Chorus)
Throw stones, make 'em skim
No worry of love from him
Passing time and living free
Age old he lives 103
Don't
take him home, the little boy
Or tempt him off the river
For he must come like as to a toy
In his own time from the river
(Chorus)
The
little boy once was me
Although now I'm strong and sure
Times I think of when I was free
Throwing stones once more
(Chorus)
No-one
knows how long it takes
For him to leave the river
For he must make his own mistakes
The little boy on the river
