Still Water

The sky is dark, the air is clear

Moonlight streaks the water like a tear

Tiny specks of light appear

Embellishing the twilight chandelier

Then you pierce the night

I can hear you (a distant voice)

I can hear you (across still water)

I can hear you (just a whisper in the night)

A gentle laugh, a soothing balm

Euphoric song in evening calm

A fragrant hymn, Ambrosian psalm

Float across the water toward the dawn

Then you pierce the night

I can hear you (a distant voice)

I can hear you (across still water)

I can hear you (just a whisper in the night)

I can hear you (a distant voice)

I can hear you (across still water)

I can hear you (just a)

Hear you (I can hear your voice)

I can hear you (spring of living water)

I can hear you (when you whisper in the night)
