Girl by the river
what is your name?
are we the same?
or of one river
for I hear your call
and it fills the wind
like the sail
I have to find
to take me home
to bring me life,
so please come
with me be my wife,
soak me with your curves
take me to your power
and make be like doves
that seek the tower.
For your heart is soft
like the flower tuft
which crowns your beauty
and your deep mystery
