Black Water Lilies




When I’m on a boat
I float, I know I can never drown
I see underwater land
The wind
The wind is the only sound

Take your hand and I go under
I’m under and above
Take your hand and I go under
I’m under and above

On the river
I’m floating in
Underwater
I’m diving into the ocean
A thousand black water lilies

Black water lilies

Arms are reaching forward
My arms, I can see no more
We dance as we float around
We head towards the ocean floor

Take your hand when I go under
I’m under and above
Take your hand when I go under
I’m under and above

On the river
I’m floating in
Underwater
I’m diving into the ocean
A thousand black water lilies

And the river
I’m floating in
Underwater
I’m diving into the ocean
On thousand black water lilies

When I am warm, crawling out
And I am reborn

Water lilies
