The water keeps rushing past me, but I can't go back and swim up stream. Can't go to where I saw those beautiful trees; the river wont take me. The river wont take me. The river wont take me. 

You can't stop the river. You can't stop the river. 

The riverbank is a beautiful place I can practically touch but I'm so far away. But, the river it takes me in an opposite way, and drowns my soul beneath the tide and the waves. 

You can't stop the river. You can't stop the river. 

The river it takes us all, and drowns us in sorrow and death. Will I make it to the shore before I breathe my last breath?  

Is there any hope for anyone who's lost in the river. Is there any hope for anyone who's lost in the river. Is there any hope for anyone who's lost in the river. Is there any hope for anyone who's lost in the river. 

You can't stop the river. (Repeat). Is there any hope for anyone who's lost in the river. (Repeat).

The name Losing Solomon means losing peace. Solomon is a hebrew name that comes from the word shalom which means peace. It was this losing peace in our lives, and in the human condition that prompted us to start writing music.
