lyrics

Upstream

When the red-winged blackbird
Calls me to the water
I know I will never be the same again.

On my way down,
Ferns and mallows soften under me
As I weave through the vapors,
Hands out.

Saying, I am ready to receive,
Ready to be taken.
A wave of flowers lift my feet
And the weight of this body, with patience

Till I drift upstream.
Where I’ll see everything and all that you are.
All that you are moves me.

When I feel the soil breaking free
Sliding down the banks between the colors of the spring.
I feel the warmth of a woman pouring out of me.

And what will I see, diving in deep?
Will the water be clear as the melting snow
That feeds your raging, wandering soul?

Will I see the wind?
High above me, humbling.
Will I bend like a willow,
Hands out?

Will I drift upstream.
Where I’ll see everything and all that you are.
All that you are
All that you are
moves me.
