Because my Brook is fluent
I know 'tis dry --
Because my Brook is silent
It is the Sea --
And startled at its rising
I try to flee
To where the Strong assure me
Is "no more Sea" --
Because my Brook is fluent
I know 'tis dry --
Because my Brook is silent
It is the Sea --
And startled at its rising
I try to flee
To where the Strong assure me
Is "no more Sea" --
