Cry me a river
Swim in your streams
When I am a father
I'll dream of better weather
What happens next?
After the bang
Out of the darkness
And into the light
Baby dear
Will you forgive me?
For the man I may be
When you grow older
Will you understand?
I did my best in this desert land
When the moon forgives
The light we depend
And silver fills your room at night
Will you dream?
Of swims in streams?
Your body weightless
Your mind floats free
No fire on earth
No oil in the sea
Baby dear
I'm smaller than you know
I used to lift skyscrapers
Before I had knees
Now I'll kneel and kiss your tiny feet
Baby dear
Will it all be okay?
My savior
My Christ the redeemer
Baby dear
Swim in your streams
Out of the everywhere
And into the here
