In The Water

Lyrics
It's cold down here, but I am used to the chill And the fish are more friendly now than when at first I fell And the weeds are quicker to dance than when my eyes first closed It is my secret hiding place Nobody else knows It's dark down here, but I am used to the dim And I have the minnows to teach me how to swim And I can stay under longer now than even you or dad And I'm heavy as a stone And I'm light as a lily pad Don't worry mother I have found another home You'll find me in the water You'll find me in the water I know you told me not to stray away too far from home And to stay away from strangers who would do me harm But he promised I could be the Lady of the Lake But he lied because I died just up there in the cave But a storm kept his promise and carried me to the deep I wear water flowers in my hair and mud between my feet Don't cry for me mother, I have found another home You'll find me in the water You'll find me Muddy water keeps a secret Better than if you lock it up And throw away the key Hush now, Hush now Go to sleep Breathe Breathe ♪ So I like to tease the rowboats, tickle their bellies, white To free fish from hook and net, while boatmen turn their eyes They blame it on the hour, on the season, on their luck But the trick is it's me all along, they never think to look But if you want to find me, to play with me once more Then wait until the floods rise, wait upon the shore And I will come to you, you know nothing but doubt A storm brought me in And a storm will bring me out Don't lose sleep for me mother, I have found another home You'll find me in the water You'll find me in the water Find me, you'll find me, you'll find me You'll find me in the water You'll find me
