Adirondack Music ~ Roots & Branches

 

 

Mountain Waters

by Susan Hamlin
c. 1999 Flood Wood Music

From the clouds to the streams
Deep peaceful lakes
Adirondack waters run free
In the high mountain springs
Great rivers are born
Travel from source to the sea

Home to the eagles
Ospreys and ducks
Herons, mergansers and loons
And our traveling friends
From high arctic lands
Visit on long journeys home

Refrain:
Mountain waters
Call us home
Endless waters
Out of your dreams we are born

Every Sunday we sit
Out on the porch
Watching the river run by
We are richer than kings
In this humble land
Where beauty surrounds us for free

Refrain:
Mountain waters
Call us home
Endless waters
Out of your dreams we are born
