Singing Water

Singing Water © 1979 Tom Shindler

  1. Oh, there’s a stream that flows in the mountains high
    Through the forest to the sea.
    And the songs it sings are the sweetest in the land
    The songs of water flowing free.

(Chorus) Laughing water, sing to me
Bring your life to all the land.
Fill my dreams, wash my soul.
Someday I may understand.

  1. And when that morning sunshine warms the mountainside
    Melting water starts to flow
    Through the mountain meadow, over cascading rocky falls.
    The singing stream begins to grow.
  2. And there’s a tree that’s growing by the waterside,
    Branches reaching to the sky.
    Beneath its soft green shade you can rest your weary bones
    And hear the water singin’ by

(Chorus)

And when the sun sets golden, and stars begin to shine
You’ll hear the water sing its song.
And when the moon is high you can hear its lullaby.
Singing water flows along.

(Chorus)
