lyrics

The Water Letter (a Gatineau lullaby)

The river at night;
the light from the stars
finally reaches
your face.

And it brings you to earth -
all the long miles,
all of the places
you’ve been.

And your mother calls
through the fading light,
and the ladies laugh
and go sailing on by.

Wind in the leaves
whispers our names,
bless us with
river water.
