1
I heard your voice at midnight
2
By the river shore
3
I saw your child sleeping
4
Behind an open door
5
The moon was in the river
6
Shining up from the floor
7
And the fish swam like moonlight
8
Through your child's closing door
9
And morning is the long way home
10
The fisherman was drowning
11
By his broken heel
12
His screams were tiny bubbles
13
And his tongue made of steel
14
When he died his teeth made stones
15
For your lonely child to feel
16
And his eyes like prayers were quiet
17
When you heard his tongues of steel
18
And morning is the long way home
19
The ghost of ghosts was passing
20
And the grasses waved like hair
21
I knew I'd die forgotten
22
I'm the whisper of your care
23
The water would surround me
24
And my body would despair
25
But my heart would understand
26
The door that's closing there
27
And morning is the long way home
