On the Water歌词

I was on the water
When it began to heave
And at the fight
My words were strong
But I would not have imagined that they'd stop making patterns
It's caps of white
Raised and broke I fasten to the boat
The panic overtook me and the fear I held within
I drew a breath and I tried to find the courage
To stand the troubled trip
What have I gotten myself into
I silently wondered
I silently asked
I thought of my family and thought of my love
I thought of my maker and what might be above
And the cabin in the woods that I have not yet built
Many other things that I hold dear in this world
I rode through the turmoil and rode through the strife
I held to my words andI clumped to my life
And then when my vision began to blur
This is what I saw in the thought that had occurred
I saw every fish swimming fast beside me
And all kinds of leafs from all different trees
And all of the insects that circle on the earth
Birds and land animals are reaching towards birth
And I saw my body on a body of water
And I could see that we were the same
Roaring and reckless invulnerable
Emotion and swinging and predisposed to changing
When I open my eyes vision respell
I picked up my oars and I kissed the coldness with stronger arms
I silently swear
I silently drifted
I silently wept
