Wind, Water, Fire And Stone

Judy Collins

A dream came to me at night

When the boats were in the sea

A dream of the black death of earth

Two voices came singing to me.



Wind, water, fire, and stone.

Storms of sand, closing over the sun

Sand, fire, water, and wind

How can we begin again.



But you can't sink a rainbow

In a world that is green

You can't make the night any brighter

By even one star.



Awake, awake, awake.



Oh the rivers are poisoned

And the lakes are gone

The dolphins are dying

And the whales have lost their song.



But you can't sink a rainbow

In a world that is green

You can't make the night any brighter

By even one star.



Awake, awake, awake.



Once I saw a man

Who said he'd seen a flock of nightengales

Once a child recalled the sound of rain

Like silver angel's wings.



Like a lost and homeless thing

The planet spins her way through space.

Drugged and battered like a woman

Who can't recall her face.



Remembering the way she used to shine

Rivers in the sea

Shine, herons on the wing,

And hear the crickets sing

A million forest birds

The sea her mantle green

Like a banner of bright hair

Around her shoulders



But you can't sink a rainbow

In a world that is green

You can't make the world any brighter

By even one star.



Awake, awake, awake.



Wind, water, fire, and stone.

Storms of sand, closing over the sun

Sand, fire, water, and wind

How can we begin again.



But you can't sink a rainbow

In a world that is green

You can't make the night any brighter

by even one star.



Awake, awake, awake.



A dream came to me at night

When the boats were in the sea

A dream of the bright death of earth.
