The water from the river Flows throughout the town It's the blood that keeps the earth alive And turns the world around Water from the fields Makes a harvest in the ground Float my body in the cool cool water When I lay my body down When I lay my body down Lay my body down Float my bones in the waters of the river When I lay my body down Water from the moon Blood dripping from the sun Sister lying sleeping in the sky In the southern constellation There is healing to be found You know it's gonna be just quiet like the rain When I lay my body down When I lay my body down Lay my body down You know it's gonna be just quiet like the rain When I lay my body down Lay my body down Lay my body down Take my body to the waters of the river When you lay my body down Lay my body down Lay my body down Take my body to the waters of the river When you lay my body down Lay my body down Lay my body down Take my body to the waters of the river When you lay my body down
