The Water is Wise (feat. Tim O'Brien)
Walkin' along the banks of a river
Starts out narrow and ends up so wide
Somewhere along you will find the right step-stones
Sooner or later you'll cross to the other side
River starts way up in the mountains
Slowly falls all the way to the sea
In between so much twistin' and turnin'
Windin' its way until it runs free
I don't know where I'm goin' but I know how I'll get there
I'll follow the laughin' water all the way down
I'll build me a boat and I'll float down the middle
Just let the current take me where I'm bound
River starts way up in the mountains
Slowly falls all the way to the sea
In between so much twistin' and turnin'
Windin' its way until it runs free
I left a friend back there on the mountain
Made a new friend on this long and windin' stream
The water is wise so just let it take you
Just let it take you into your dream
When I was younger I asked lots of questions
I asked and asked but no one seemed to hear
But I was the one who should have been listenin'
Now I know I have nothin' to fear
River starts way up in the mountains
Slowly falls all the way to the sea
In between so much twistin' and turnin'
Windin' its way until is runs free
Starts out narrow and ends up so wide
Somewhere along you will find the right step-stones
Sooner or later you'll cross to the other side
River starts way up in the mountains
Slowly falls all the way to the sea
In between so much twistin' and turnin'
Windin' its way until it runs free
I don't know where I'm goin' but I know how I'll get there
I'll follow the laughin' water all the way down
I'll build me a boat and I'll float down the middle
Just let the current take me where I'm bound
River starts way up in the mountains
Slowly falls all the way to the sea
In between so much twistin' and turnin'
Windin' its way until it runs free
I left a friend back there on the mountain
Made a new friend on this long and windin' stream
The water is wise so just let it take you
Just let it take you into your dream
When I was younger I asked lots of questions
I asked and asked but no one seemed to hear
But I was the one who should have been listenin'
Now I know I have nothin' to fear
River starts way up in the mountains
Slowly falls all the way to the sea
In between so much twistin' and turnin'
Windin' its way until is runs free
