Duration: P00H03M52S
Description: I wrote this in LA, May 2023 at my daughter Devan and son-in-law Peter’s house. It was our first visit after a very challenging year with serious family illness all around…I had an anxious day the second day there and wrote this song, which helped me access some of those tough worry feelings, juxtaposed with how much I was loving being there.

lyrics

I glide my boat down sorrow’s stream
Keep my cares afloat
Fangs of affliction so close on the shore
Howling dogs of war
Rock me sweetly nice and sleepy
Dream my life away
On wings I hope and pray
I cry my skin fades and burns
The empty waiting game
Slipping through grasping hands
Nothing stays the same
Rock me sweetly nice and sleepy
Dream my life away
On wings I hope and pray
River guide me rocks remind me
Water always finds a way
Currents I feel never more real
Water always finds a way
I glide my boat down sorrow’s stream
Keep my cares afloat
Rock me sweetly nice and sleepy
Dream my life away
On wings I hope and pray
River guide me rocks remind me
Water always finds a way
Currents I feel never more real
Water always finds a way
Water always finds a way
