Waterstriders Lyrics by Martin Tielli

Operation Infinite Joy

0

I'll go when the sun gets lower
Down by the bridge
Where the amber water pools
And foam gathers in stones by the shore
[All along the river
Waterstriders play.]
I'm thinking about...
I'm thinking about...
I'm thinking about...

You are descended from the slaves
Who escaped to here in the early days
Bones weathering from the embankment
After the ice broke
I'm thinking about forever
I'm thinking about staying
I'm thinking about...
I'm thinking about how close you came to dying

When I die please bury me
Underneath the hanging tree
I want to lie with these questions
Forever
