Water Flowing Downward by Andrea von Kampen Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Water's always flowing downward
Maybe I should go there, too
With the people who know hunger
And feel the rains come flooding through
[Chorus]
Take what's given
And don't ask questions
Do your best to look away
But I can't go softly
I won't go gently
I'll choose the water everyday
[Verse 2]
What a woman with a secret
Something that is buried deep
In a house that's filled with sunlight
Rays that warm her while she sleeps
[Chorus]
Take what's given
And don't ask questions
Do your best to look away
But I can't go softly
I won't go gently
I'll choose the water everyday
[Verse 3]
I could tell you of that evening
When it all came tumbling down
With my family gathered 'round me
In a house half underground
[Chorus]
Take what's given
And don't ask questions
Do your best to look away
But I can't go softly
I won't go gently
I'll choose the water everyday
But I can't go softly
I won't go gently
I'll choose the water everyday
Water's always flowing downward
Maybe I should go there, too
With the people who know hunger
And feel the rains come flooding through
[Chorus]
Take what's given
And don't ask questions
Do your best to look away
But I can't go softly
I won't go gently
I'll choose the water everyday
[Verse 2]
What a woman with a secret
Something that is buried deep
In a house that's filled with sunlight
Rays that warm her while she sleeps
[Chorus]
Take what's given
And don't ask questions
Do your best to look away
But I can't go softly
I won't go gently
I'll choose the water everyday
[Verse 3]
I could tell you of that evening
When it all came tumbling down
With my family gathered 'round me
In a house half underground
[Chorus]
Take what's given
And don't ask questions
Do your best to look away
But I can't go softly
I won't go gently
I'll choose the water everyday
But I can't go softly
I won't go gently
I'll choose the water everyday
