Jackson Browne - Our Lady Of The Well Lyrics

Font:

Align:

It is a dance we do in silence

Far below this morning sun

You in your life, me in mine

We have begun

Here we stand and without speaking

Draw the water from the well

And stare beyond the plains

To where the mountains lie so still

But its a long way that I have come

Across the sand to find this peace among your people in the sun

Where the families work the land as they have always done

Oh its so far the other way my countrys gone

Across my home has grown the shadow

Of a cruel and senseless hand

Though in some strong hearts

The love and truth remain

And it has taken me this distance

And a womans smile to learn

That my heart remains among them

And to them I must return

But its a long way that I have come

Across the sand to find you here among these people in the sun

Where your children will be born

Youll watch them as they run

Oh its so far the other way my life has gone

If you look for me, maria

You will find me in the shade

Wide awake or in a dream

Its hard to tell--

If you come to me, maria

I will show you what Ive made

Its a picture for our lady of the well
