At Blackwater Pond the tossed waters have settled after a night of rain. I dip my cupped hands. I drink a long time. It tastes like stone, leaves, fire. It falls cold into my body, waking the bones. I hear them deep inside me, whispering oh what is that beautiful thing that just happened?
Prayin' for daylight, waiting for that morning sun So i can act like my whole life ain't going wrong Baby come back to me, i swear i'll make it right Don't make me spend another lonely night Prayin' for daylight.
By me My dear friend The one i can run to No matter the distance Near Or far I'll trust And Cherish you Through ups and downs Some people go Some people stay In my heart You'll stay Right where you belong In my heart forever And ever.

a long time. It tastes
like stone, leaves, fire. It falls cold
into my body, waking the bones. I hear them
deep inside me, whispering
oh what is that beautiful thing
