[Verse 1]
Wade in the water (Water)
Mud covered feet (Ooh)
I'm dizzy in sunlight
Splashing over me
My hands reaching outward (Aah)
The wind and my mother
They both held me upright
As I fell right
Back into backwards
Hold my breath and go

[Chorus 1]
Oh what a feeling
As the waters
Rush over me (Rush over me)
The faces blurring

[Verse 2]
My sister
Riding her bike from the store
My grandfather smoking his pipe
Out on the porch
My eyes watch like a dream
This life that spills over me
[Chorus 2]
And rocks me to sleep (Rocks me to sleep)

[Verse 3]
The sky is a blanket (The sky)
Your hand is a stone (A stone)
The lake is a prayer (Lake is a)
Swallowing prayers (Swallowing)
As I close my eyes

[Bridge]
And maybe it's you (Maybe it's you)
Your love that I'm feeling (Love that I'm feeling)
And maybe it's God (Maybe it's God)
This love that I'm feeling (Love that I'm feeling)
And maybe it's just (Maybe)
The sun spreading over the rippling water
And maybe I'm just (Maybe I'm just)
A drumming of heartbeats (Drumming of heartbeats)
And maybe I was (Maybe I was)
A melody leaping (Melody leaping)
From birds singing as
The light fades across the whole world (That fades across the world)
Holding its breath as I go

[Chorus 1]
Oh what a feeling
As the waters (Waters)
Rush over me (Rush over)
The faces blurring
[Verse 4]
My mother
Holding me tight to her chest
When I close my eyes
I still feel her words in my head (Aah)
It fills me like a dream
Her voice that spills over me

[Chorus 2]
And rocks me to sleep (Rock me)
Rocks me to sleep (Rock me)
And rocks me to sleep (Rock me, rock me)
