Across the Water

Fall into sleep as the sun comes up

And wake at the back of noon

Drift through the hours as the sun gets lower

Till the days are lit by the moonEvery day is every day

Can't tell one from the other

Wait to fall at the end of it all

As stones skip across the waterLived on wit, got away with it

Hummed a universal tune

Found a thread away in the head

Followed it over the moonEvery day is every day

One foot in front of the other

Learn to fall with the grace of it all

As stones skip across the water
