Saw your arms hanging at your side Nowhere to run to, baby, nowhere to hide Saw you moving real slow Nowhere to run to, nowhere to go I heard the wind blow I saw your sash come untied Blue water, white sky
Up in the cedars, we were too far away For the radio to tell us the time of day But there was moisture in the air I heard the city call They can go on burning To hell with them all Your liquid movements The water rushing by Blue water, white sky
World's surface was as smooth as glass And they saw the hour coming and they didn't let it pass I heard you say my name twice through your teeth I saw you coming down to me, I was underneath It's been coming for some time You close your eyes Blue water, white sky
I heard the wind blow I saw your sash come untied Blue water, white sky
