Cover art for Rivers and Roads lyrics by Head and the Heart, The

My interpretation of this song is something that all of us should always remember. He starts by saying how short life is, how good moments come and go. It looks like a year from now we'll all be gone. As we grow up we see friend moving away, going to other (better) places. During our lives we remember good moments with those friends and how nothing is as it has been. We miss them (like hell) and guess they feel the same. He says that he can talk more about the way things change, like family. Not only friends but also family isn´t there forever. Probably you will live for a differente place, state or country. My favorite part is the chorus. Knowing that life is short, knowing that the moments with friends and family are precious and knowing that sooner or later all that moments will be gone, you should make something about it. You should value every and each moment with those you love. Now that you get it, if don't know what to make of this then we will not relate.
