Rab Thomson - Side of a Stream
lyrics
Side of a Stream

Shady trees in the morning mist
Willow tree is weeping over what you have missed
Was it a friend or a lover that you kissed?

Kingfisher bird by the side of a stream
was it a fish that you caught in your dream
or was it the guise for something that might have been?

You sit and you stare
oh so blankly into space
reflecting on a sadness with the human race
or are you regretting some lost lovers embrace?

Look at yourself in a mirror of time
is it your youth over which you are crying
or is the loss of something you can't define?
