One day, we'll bathe in the heat and the clay
And barefoot we walked far away
We talked and talked in the shade
Someday, you said this would all go away
The sun and the moon and waves
And taken back all that she gave
You knew that nothing was something to do
The sea and the sky shine blue
I tried but I could not get through
And lately I wonder had I been wiser then
Would we be there, still there
Like rocking chairs, like rocking chairs
The silence was something you see
The wind pushing over the trees
You taught me that nothing is free
And later I wonder had I been wiser then
Would we be there, still there
Like rocking chairs, like rocking chairs
Like rocking chairs
Like rocking chairs
