Waterfall

Small Town Poets

If I were a tape recorder

Would you take me in Your pack?

You could say anything

And I would play it back

If we took the beach side down

To where the boardwalk ends

I would find a way

To introduce You to my friends



CHORUS:

Were You a pool there on the mountain standing tall

I would be a waterfall

I would carry water down from depths that run untold

Living water

Walls can't hold



If You were the umbrella now

And I the driving rain

I'd wish You were a bucket

Underneath the window pane

If I play the field a while

I might miss the catch

When I show my colors

I'll be in need of their match



CHORUS



If Your words were water

Brimming over to be heard by all

I'd be the drop there on the edge

The drop that pulls the waterfall

Pulls the waterfall

I will be the piece of clay

And You the hands that mold

You will be the purchase made

Of everything I've sold



CHORUS
