Lyrics The Ozark Mountain Daredevils

The Ozark Mountain Daredevils

Watermill

Where the snow melts

And the shadows bend

Weeping willows dance

And the sea swells

At the river's end

Calling in the trance

And our eyes meet while the watermill

Turns the stubborn stream

And my life breaks on the waterwheel

Into a dream

 

When the light fades

And the wind is still

Hear the cricket's rhyme

And the cascades

Of the river spill

Falling out of time

And our eyes meet while

The watermill

Turns the stubborn stream

And my life breaks on

The waterwheel

Into a dream

 

So the earth turns

Like a paddlewheel

Secret still in spin

And the sun burns

On a golden field

Where you've always been

And our eyes meet while

The watermill

Turns the stubborn stream

The waterwheel

Into a dream

And my life breaks on

The waterwheel

Into a dream
