Backwaterawhile

from Camouflage by Sonny Condell

lyrics

Oh...let the rushing crowds rush on.
Oh...let the pushing push right on.
We've now both been much too long here.
Oh...backwater awhile.

It seems there's a mighty storm up here.
Come, love, let us find a shelter.
Your sweet forehead needs no lines
Oh... backwater awhile.

Stand in a hall of glass with me
Moon above and fish below
Years are pearls in shells of silence
Oh... backwater awhile.

And our eyes they were as bonds of iron
And our thoughts they were the meaning of the water
And our eyes were as bonds of iron
And our thoughts were of the meaning of water

Oh...let the rushing crowd rush on
Come, love, let the pushing push right on
Your sweet forehead needs no lines
Oh...backwater awhile
