Pond
  - for Julie and Ted, 10/9/99

There’s a lot of love stories don’t end with a kiss
But it’s fine to sing them
There’s not a lot of road that the rain has missed
But it’s only miles
She went down to the water – from the shoulder
Put her hands in the water – to soothe her

Rain that falls on a reflecting pond
Can hide your face
You could sink down into a shallow pond
Trying to see your face
She went down to the water – saw them swimming
Put her hands in the water – where he was swimming

A kiss by the reflecting pond gets caught in the ripples
And the faces slide together as the hands slide together, slide together….

Someone saw her swim in the reflecting pond
Like it was miles of water
Even rippled water lets you see your face
If you close your eyes
He went down to the water – she was swimming
He put his hands in the water – they were swimming

A kiss by the reflecting pond gets caught in the ripples
And the faces slide together as the hands slide together, slide together….
