Across Waters
Come in son, take off them boots
Hang up your coat
Pull up that chair to the stove, where it's warm
Will you have coffee or tea
On this grey November morning
Thank you for asking, I guess I am ok
Last night I woke up
With a dream that is been haunting me
Over and over again I see faces
Turning away from the fire
Across the waters
Across the cold dark waters
Then all of a sudden the images change
Far away hills roll away in the sun
I feel the longing of spring
There's me as a child
Happily laughing goodbye to my father
Who is leaving to fight in some war
And the house seems to whisper: leave
Across the waters
Across the cold dark waters
Thank you for asking
Yes I am ok, this fire has burnt down low
But do not worry
It has ceased to remind me
I am ready to leave
Across the waters
Hang up your coat
Pull up that chair to the stove, where it's warm
Will you have coffee or tea
On this grey November morning
Thank you for asking, I guess I am ok
Last night I woke up
With a dream that is been haunting me
Over and over again I see faces
Turning away from the fire
Across the waters
Across the cold dark waters
Then all of a sudden the images change
Far away hills roll away in the sun
I feel the longing of spring
There's me as a child
Happily laughing goodbye to my father
Who is leaving to fight in some war
And the house seems to whisper: leave
Across the waters
Across the cold dark waters
Thank you for asking
Yes I am ok, this fire has burnt down low
But do not worry
It has ceased to remind me
I am ready to leave
Across the waters
