lyrics

Walking on the quiet trails,
Where I know no one will be but me.
I need to be alone
Because I want to think of you,
But I am not alone
Because you’re on my mind, so true.

Smash the nettles,
Touch the bristles on the thistles.
Watch the ripples
As they shake up green reflections.

Somehow these golden pictures have something of you.
Though nature’s not your longing,
Nature longs for you.

There’s something of your spirit in this river.
I think it’s just the way it’s full of life.

Walking on the quiet trails.
Where I go, no one will know but me.
I need to be alone
Because I’m missing you, It’s true.
The people that I meet
Don’t shimmer like the way you do.

In the shadows:
Dew is still upon the grass.
In the patches:
Yellow light comes through the branches.

Somehow these playful pictures have something of you.
Though nature’s not your longing,
I see it in you.

There’s something of your spirit in this river.
I think it’s just the way it’s full of life.

There’s something of your spirit in this river.
I think it’s just the way it’s full of life.
