Gitchi Gummi
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Are you saying that the sky is wide?
Are you saying that the sunlight likes to play
Upon your waves?
Are you saying that the time goes fast?
Are you saying that my life won't last too long
Before I'm gone
Gitchi Gummi, Gitchi, Gitchi Gummi
Is there something that you're saying to me?
You look a little bit like God almighty
Such a frightening thing
Keep on talking to me Gitchi Gummi
I need a measure of your holy mystery
Take me to your shore
Set me down and pour
Your mighty water over me
Are you saying I don't know too much,
But if I don't know the earth is such a jewel
I'm such fool?
And are you maybe staring back at me
Saying I am made of earth and water too?
I'm just like you
Gitchi Gummi, Gitchi, Gitchi Gummi
Is there something that you're saying to me?
You look a little bit like God almighty
Such a frightening thing
Keep on talking to me Gitchi Gummi
I need a measure of your holy mystery
Take me to your shore
Set me down and pour
Your mighty water over me
