Drown Away
Riding down in dad's old Chevrolet
I had a dream of a little girl laughing all her worries away
She had curls in her hair and wore tight
Little shorts and was scared of the water
She didn't know why
She held mama's hand and everything was okay
And she said, "Mama don't let me drown away"
Drown away, drown away
Mama don't let me drown away
Drown away, drown away
Riding down in dad's old grey Ford
She saw trees running back and forth
And wondered why the sun would stay there
It was cooler on the hills but closer to the sun, questions to ask
And she didn't know why
She held mama's hand and everything was okay
And she said, "Mama don't let me drown away"
Drown away, drown away
Mama don't let me drown away
Drown away, drown away
The salt, the sand
And the trees, the breeze
The rocks, the air
Her locks, her hair
The salt, the sand
The trees, the breeze
The rocks, the air
Her locks, her hair
Tranquility
Tranquility
The infinite stretches of the ocean
Horizons of the sky, you fall upon me
So mama, can we stay here a while longer?
I had a dream of a little girl laughing all her worries away
She had curls in her hair and wore tight
Little shorts and was scared of the water
She didn't know why
She held mama's hand and everything was okay
And she said, "Mama don't let me drown away"
Drown away, drown away
Mama don't let me drown away
Drown away, drown away
Riding down in dad's old grey Ford
She saw trees running back and forth
And wondered why the sun would stay there
It was cooler on the hills but closer to the sun, questions to ask
And she didn't know why
She held mama's hand and everything was okay
And she said, "Mama don't let me drown away"
Drown away, drown away
Mama don't let me drown away
Drown away, drown away
The salt, the sand
And the trees, the breeze
The rocks, the air
Her locks, her hair
The salt, the sand
The trees, the breeze
The rocks, the air
Her locks, her hair
Tranquility
Tranquility
The infinite stretches of the ocean
Horizons of the sky, you fall upon me
So mama, can we stay here a while longer?
