Water Flowing Downward

Water's always flowing downward Maybe I should go there too With the people who know hunger And feel the rains come flooding through Take what's given And don't ask questions Do your best to look away But I can't go softly I won't go gently I'll choose the water everyday What a woman with a secret Something that is buried deep In a house that's filled with sunlight Rays that warm her while she sleeps Take what's given And don't ask questions Do your best to look away But I can't go softly I won't go gently I'll choose the water everyday I could tell you of that evening When it all came tumbling down With my family gathered 'round me In a house half underground Take what's given And don't ask questions Do your best to look away But I can't go softly I won't go gently I'll choose the water everyday But I can't go softly I won't go gently I'll choose the water everyday
