lyrics

Barefoot walking on that road
every step pressed all the holidays
into red of Africa,
then it spread through all the hues of gray

reflected on the lake,
the sky about to break.

Breath-stirred hem of Bangladesh
at your knees and hair across your face--
clothed like estuary birds
in the warmth of estuary days.

They'll push us past the waves.
They'll push us out to sea.
Whate'er will be will be.
If you will walk with me,
we'll always keep each other free.

Clothed like estuary birds
in the warmth of estuary days.
