Feet On Stones

David Fonseca


We stand on the riverbed
We stand as the water flows into the sea
Slippery feet on stones
No I won't let you fall
Just hold on to me
We cried this loss in wonder
We hopedthat we could catch the silent thief
We held each other stronger
Your bones all wrapped in knots inside of me
We stand on the riverbed
We stand as the water flows
Into the sea
Slippery feet on stones
No I won't let you fall Just hold on to me
We stood as this love wandered
We hoped that it could find his way back home
She cried, she said "it's over"
My feet they just kept slipping on the stones
