Raymiecana - Pathway

from Raymiecana 5 by Raymie Wilson

about

A wee story about trying to live in a place that keeps on changing with the seasons. Every year just comes around the same as the year before......and so it goes.

lyrics

There’s a Pathway
From my door
Runs on down to the river
Down to the shore

You can hear
The water flow
As you stand in the doorway
Of my home

This time of year
The water is high
Sometimes in the morning
The grass ain’t dry

Tide is rising
More every day
Soon
We will have to move away

When the rain comes falling down
Like the sky is emptying every cloud
We will have to be on our way
As the fields become one with the sea

When the rain comes falling down
Like the sky is emptying every cloud
We will have to be on our way
As the fields become one with the sea

I Looked out this morning
The path had gone
Just bright shiny water
Lapping in the sun

Took my family
Up to the hills
Where we’ll wait
Thru the the winter’s chill

When the snow comes falling down
And the frost forms freezing the ground
We stay inside, keeping warm by the fire
and weather the storm

Spring is here
Sun’s shining down
Melting the last of the snow
From the ground

Brings more problems with the thaw
Washing our crops
Into the river below

Summer’s around the corner
And it starts the cycle once again
As I walk down the path, on the scorched, dry earth
I pray to the heavens for rain

Down the pathway
From my door
You can’t hear nothin’
For the water don’t flow

Drought hit hard
I fear
It will Always be the same
This time of year
