AT THE WATERSIDE
Words and music by Sarah McQuaid & Zoë Pollock
Recorded on Mama: Crow Coyote Buffalo (2009)
I hear the water dancing
In the stream that flows at my feet
In the shadows, in the sunlight
I am healed and I am at peace
There are words and there are echoes
There are voices whispering
At the waterside
I have lived and I have travelled
Far from the country I came from
In the shelter of this garden
I have found a place to call home
There are words and there are echoes
There are voices whispering
At the waterside
And when the light is fading
And evening is starting to fall
I will stay here and take my refuge
From the world’s insistent call
I hear the water dancing
In the stream that flows at my feet
In the shadows, in the sunlight
I am healed and I am at peace
There are words and there are echoes
There are voices whispering
At the waterside
