lyrics

Staring through the river
As bubbles pass by
With the green in the water
And The blue in the sky
This question in the river
This longing in the sky
These thoughts upon the water
As bubbles pass by

With the swish and swirl of eddies
The twigs and silt and stone
The brambles and the stories
Of the teasel and the thorn
The stones know the reasons
For the truth and for the lies
For the scorn of scars of seasons
Of the foolish and the wise
The question in the river
The longing in the sky
The thoughts upon the water
As bubbles pass by

Staring through the river
As bubbles pass by
The green in the water
The blue in the sky
The question in the river
This longing in the sky
The thoughts upon the water
The bubbles passing by
