|
Though I was cracking |
|
I still felt so free |
|
Like seagulls relaxing |
|
Or leaves in the tree |
|
Thats how i was living |
|
My boys were my backing |
|
And loyal to me |
|
Our chest they were strapping |
|
With snowshoes on our feet |
|
And sand in our sheets |
|
Let the fall flood arrive |
|
Let us see with new eyes |
|
Please destroy this disguise |
|
There was a lacking |
|
No head on my arm |
|
No one to look after |
|
Or keep free from harm |
|
No one to bring songs |
|
No love ever lasting |
|
On dark canyon drives |
|
The voices were cackling |
|
And poking my pride |
|
So i decried |
|
Let the fall flood arrive |
|
Let it fall while i rise |
|
Let me gleam with surprise |
|
Let it lift up our life |
|
So soon it came surging |
|
I knew it by name |
|
And so i was urging |
|
Its flicker its flame |
|
And when the glow came |
|
The lights were converging |
|
They all seemed the same |
|
The moment was merging |
|
So i felt the change |
|
The width of the rain |
|
Let the fall flood arrive |
|
Let it fill let it rise |
|
Let the grounds and the skies |
|
Be absorbed in our eyes |
|
So go painting the sky |
|
And be invisibly wise |
|
Let the fall flood arrive |
