waters of the wild

hackett, steve

come away o human child

to the waters of the wild

with a fairy hand in hand

for the world's more full of weeping

than you can understand

fly away you stolen child

through a magic lantern slide

singing in the acid rain

with all those who drink from

the waters of the wild

far away my lost child

i see your breath and your smile

on the silver frosted lawns

in the dream that came alive

at the end of nowhere
