In the river
Where I been weeping
In the holly
Where the cold wind blows
A list of secrets
That I been keeping
First the seed
And then the garden grows

The waves tell
Of a secret seeping
And everything
Is gonna overflow
And high above
A sky above
I hear a buzzing
I hear a winging
Listen close
And hear
The birdies singing

La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la (4x)

Oh the songs you would sing
If you had wings
And you could sing anything
I'd sing
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
