9 – Out On The Water

Track 9:

The exultation of wild faith.



Lyrics:

I want to meet you out on the water walking where there’s no footfall
I want to meet you out on the water just you and I in the midst of it all

I don’t care where the winds are blowing and I don’t care how high the waves
Don’t even care if the cock is crowing or how the rest of the world behaves

I want to meet you out on the water out in the black and windy sky
I want to meet you out on the water under the wonderful stars so high

I can just see you across the water you’re not a ghost you’re not a dream
Of all of Adam’s sons and daughters I never saw anyone so serene

I want to meet you out on the water out in the jubilant stormy sea
I want to meet you out on the water I’ll come out when you call to me

All the boats in my life are sinking none of my bones can stay afloat
I only know and I keep thinking out there with you I won’t need a boat

I want to meet you out on the water walking out there with my feet of clay
I want to meet you out on the water and I want you to show me the way

I can just see you across the water walking the earth and the sky and the sea
Any thing else I ever sought means nothing now anymore to me

Cause I want to meet you out on the water walking where there’s no footfall
I want to meet you out on the water just you and I in the midst of it all
