lyrics

You were walking
Through the stream
The rocks couldn't
Catch you in time

Just like the winter
I have a fountain
In my front yard
And it cries
Oh, how it cries

She went skipping
Down by the brook
It swallowed her bucket
And the whole earth—it shook
Oh lord, how it shook

She’s still not sure
If he’s up for more
Or less
Leaving the light
He covered his chest
Oh lord, he covered his chest

And oh lord,
I can’t let go of your rope
Oh lord,
Even though it chokes me
Because I can’t breathe
Without them
