Waking

Stream of consciousness

On a sleeping

Street of dreams

Thoughts

Like scattered leaves

Slowed in midfall

Into the streams

Of fast running rivers

Of choice and chance

And time stops here on the delta

While they dance, while they dance

Instrumental (Pedal Steel Guitar)

I love the child

Who steers this riverboat

Lately he's crazy

For the deep

And the river seems dreamlike

In the daytime

And someone keeps thinking

In my sleep

About fast running rivers

Of choice and chance

And time stops here on the delta

While they dance, while they dance

While they dance Aaahh ...

While they dance da, da, da ...

While they dance da, da, da ...

While they dance da, da, da ...

While they dance, dance river dance

While they dance da, da, da ...
