Our Lady of the Well

[00:07.20] It is a dance we do in silence
[00:16.61] Far below this morning sun
[00:20.54] You in your life, me in mine
[00:23.50] We have begun
[00:27.54] Here we stand and without speaking
[00:30.52] Draw the water from the well
[00:33.77] And stare beyond the plains
[00:38.21] To where the mountains lie so still
[00:42.13] But it's a long way that I have come
[00:45.62] Across the sand to find this peace among your people in the sun
[00:51.93] Where the families work the land as they have always done
[00:56.71] Oh it's so far the other way my country's gone
[01:11.84] Across my home has grown the shadow
[01:15.39] Of a cruel and senseless hand
[01:18.81] Though in some strong hearts
[01:22.18] The love and truth remain
[01:25.38] And it has taken me this distance
[01:28.85] And a woman's smile to learn
[01:32.24] That my heart remains among them
[01:35.39] And to them I must return
[01:39.44] But it's a long way that I have come
[01:44.31] Across the sand to find you here among these people in the sun
[01:49.99] Where your children will be born
[01:54.65] You'll watch them as they run
[01:58.02] Oh it's so far the other way my life has gone
[02:07.82] If you look for me, Maria
[02:10.34] You will find me in the shade
[02:13.68] Wide awake or in a dream
[02:16.74] It's hard to tell-
[02:21.28] If you come to me, Maria
[02:23.84] I will show you what I've made
[02:27.84] It's a picture for our lady of the well
[03:35.29]
