Sleeping on the water
Blowing red dust
Sleeping on the water
Not knowing if I’m blessed or cursed
Sleeping on the water
In a water-tight skin
Sleeping on the water
Since the world began to spin

Sleeping on the water
In a cloud of musk
Sleeping on the water
Day turns into dusk
Sleeping on the water
Drums begin to pound
Sleeping on the water
I don’t hear a sound

Sleeping on the water
Women weeping on the banks
Sleeping on the water
While the men are giving thanks
Sleeping on the water
While the goatherd prays
Sleeping on the water
While the fields are ablaze

Sleeping on the water
Thunder clapping loud
Sleeping on the water
Under castles made of cloud
Sleeping on the water
Golden thread is spun
Sleeping on the water
Under a golden sun

Sleeping on the water
Empires rise and fall
Sleeping on the water
Bells toll and birds call
Sleeping on the water
Trying to beat the odds
Sleeping on the water
In the twilight of the gods

Sleeping on the water
Under cities in the sky
Sleeping on the water
Letting centuries go by
Sleeping on the water
Another thunder clap
Sleeping on the water
Trying to wake up
