Where the Waters Flow

from Rise by Joanne Rand

about

Written on Mothers Day, sitting with my husband and child by a running stream in the forest. My young daughter helped me with the lyrics: “I will always be there for you, if you want me to.”

lyrics

WHERE THE WATERS FLOW –Joanne Rand

Thirteen years ago

I never would have thought that this would be so

I’d just said goodbye

To my brother.

Thirteen years ago I was single and scared to let you in

I’d just said goodbye

To my brother

To my best friend

WHERE THE WATERS FLOW

WHERE THE WATERS FLOW

WHERE THE WATERS FLOW

But now we’re here

Where the sun shines

And the butterflies fly by

Now we’re here

Where the waters flow.

Now we’re here

My husband and my child and I

Now we’re here

Where the waters flow.

WHERE THE WATERS FLOW

WHERE THE WATERS FLOW

WHERE THE WATERS FLOW

I will always be there for you, if you want me to.

I will always be beside you.

I will always be there for you, if you want me to.

I will always be beside you.

WHERE THE WATERS FLOW

WHERE THE WATERS FLOW

WHERE THE WATERS FLOW

WHERE THE WATERS FLOW.
