Stay back

By Karen Roberts
The notes flow through the air
A sound that forgets despair
You smile from the other side
Your song has me mesmerised
Beside me the water sighed 

Chorus:
Nearer and nearer I go 
A few steps and I’m over
Beside me the earth cried 
Stay back from the water 

It wraps around my broken soul 
Your voice entombs me whole
And I’m a slave to your sound 
I can almost touch your hands 
For you I’d go into the ground 
Around me the water demands

(Chorus)

I’m a slave to your sound 

An off note breaks the trance 
It screams through the morning 
Perhaps I should heed the warning 
You sneer from the other side
The water waits as I decide
I turn back to a second chance 

(Chorus)

Beneath me the earth replied 
Stay back from the water
