Waterfall Lyrics - The Echoing Green

Autumn comes and the leaves turn brown 

Ashes come and we all fall down 

I wish I could find a way 

To hold the day 

Captive to the words you say 

You know that it's not easy 

To lift these feelings 

Up off the ground 

And when I seem so distant 

I feel your insistent love surround me... 

Under the waterfall 

I'm finally letting down my walls 

Under the waterfall 

All my burdens feel so small 

Thunder comes and the sky turns gray 

Evidence of the world astray 

Sometimes it holds me down 

With my eyes to the ground 

To never see the light of day 

Sometimes I feel like running away 

On the grayest of days 

And the darkest of nights 

Yet you replace my sorrow 

With the hope of tomorrow 

And the coming of light 

Under the waterfall 

I'm finally letting down my walls 

Under the waterfall 

All my burdens feel so small 

And if the only way to You was down 

I'd willingly drown to find You there 

Your whispering grace 

The tears on your face 

Filling the sea of forgiveness 

Under the waterfall 

I'm finally letting down my walls 

Under the waterfall 

All my burdens feel so small
