lyrics

The water is cold and dark
And the smell of the metal and reeds
And the bark of the trees
Unsettles me alarms and is marked by the
Pale umbilical trail of the moon
I must travel soon

Well the rain's been kind
But the sun has been blind
And it's not the kind of climate to plant a seed
We worked the land but the mud in our hands
Is not gonna stand another mouth to feed

I have never been so far from home
As the last pale pine on the horizon
Give me the strength to go
'Cause it's sink or swim and I'm feeling frozen

Wade in the water
Wade in the water
Just let me go down without a sound
Wade in the water
Wade in the water
It's sink or swim but my hands are bound

I have never been so far from home
As the last pale pine on the horizon
Give me the strength to go
'Cause it's sink or swim and I haven't chosen

Wade in the water
Wade in the water
Or row aground
Don't let me down

Leaves fall off in my hand one by one
Brown in the sand and I'm overcome
When we started this life all those years ago
I could not have imagined the pain I'd know
But it's not getting better and it's not going away
If you don't reach out cause you can't stay
The roots have all rotted and moot is the thought
That we oughta tried it another way
There comes a time in everyone's life
When it's no longer wise to look away

Wade in the water
Wade in the water
Row against the tide
Wade in the water
Or row against the tide
But you gotta try

I have never been so far from home
As the last pale pine on the horizon
Give me the strength to go
'Cause it's sink or swim and I haven't chosen

Wade in the water
Wade in the water
Or row aground
Don't let me down
