Lyrics
[verse]
A leaf on the water, a spark in the night
A door left ajar, a wandering light
A song half-remembered, a step on the stair
A whisper of morning caught up in the air
[chorus]
It's the waters of the turning year
Washing away what we hold so dear
It's the end and the start of the very same thing
It's the waters that carry the turning of spring
[verse]
A stone in the river, a bird taking flight
A candle that flickers but still holds its light
A road that keeps bending, a hand on a rail
A story unfinished, the wind in a sail
[chorus]
It's the waters of the turning year
Washing away what we hold so dear
It's the end and the start of the very same thing
It's the waters that carry the turning of spring
[bridge]
Nothing more, nothing less, just the turn of the days
Just the small quiet moments in a thousand small ways
And still, it keeps flowing, it never stands still
It's the waters of March finding their way down the hill
[chorus]
It's the waters of the turning year
Washing away what we hold so dear
It's the end and the start of the very same thing
It's the waters that carry the turning of spring
