Need help with lyrics
Posted: Sun May 02, 2010 6:11 pm
Hello,
I am working on an obituary. For this I would need the lyrics of this song from the seventies.
It is pretty difficult to understand; here's what I could figure out. Any help appreciated.
(I guess every second line of the verse should rhyme with the previous.)

What does it mean when stands the river
* What's a lake that fails to ... [~ there are no ripples, the lake is dead calm]
And the wind that doesn't blow
It means they live no more
* Like a motion that has not been ... [~it is broken]
Like a road that never leads anywhere
Like a waterfall that dries in a crust
If I don't go I am lost
I'd be the grass that grows everywhere
For your breath how I would be the fresh air
I'd be the word to get to you alone
A guiding hand when you're old
* Were I a dance that ... running round
The heart of the Earth would start to pound
In this heart let I be the blood
And who always moves and never stops
