With your eyes so blue
With all that's happening it's hard to stay true to ou
Will you take my hand
And show me the way
Or will you mystify the reasons why you're here today

Time is a river running free, a-ha
What is there to believe when every
Thing just looks so black and white
Should I kneel or should I fight

Too much contemplation
Might make you nervous
Mmm, too much contemplation
Will make you turn your world around
A-ha

Tell me, holy father
What am I gonna say
To all the people who have lost some loved ones on their way
Don't you know they'll never ever comprehend
That their loving hearts
Will be heaven sent

Time is a river running wild
Time, time, time
Oh so wild
What is there to believe when it's so
Hard for us to understand
Should I follow you and take your hand

Too much contemplation
Might make you nervous or not
Too much contemplation
Will make you turn your world around, yeah

Say a prayer or turn away
Do you believe
Will love lead us astray
The world is spinning
Are you spinning too
Believe in yourself and I'll be true to you

Time is a river running free, a-ha
What is there to believe when every
Thing just looks so black and white
Should I kneel or should I fight

Too much contemplation
Too much contemplation
Might make you nervous
O-ho-ho
Too much contemplation
Will make you turn your world around

Too much contemplation
Too much contemplation
Might make you nervous
Might make you nervous
Too much contemplation
Will make you turn your world around
