Clearwater Lyrics
Is this a mystic deep dark spell
or a joke to make us come undone and yell
another blackness tries again
to bend our will behind our backs
and hold us down til' we say
when will this be over when
will we be free in the end
and in the end will the water run clear
and all the cold disappear into clearwater clear
so deep that we can all come clean
is this a madman's time to tell
to sell a fate that burns our eyes from our lives
well I say
when will this be over when
will we be free in the end
and in the end will the water run clear
and all the sad disappear into clearwater clear
so deep that we can all come clean
clearwater clear
so deep that we can all come clean
clearwater clear
so deep that we can all come clean
clearwater clear
or a joke to make us come undone and yell
another blackness tries again
to bend our will behind our backs
and hold us down til' we say
will we be free in the end
and in the end will the water run clear
and all the cold disappear into clearwater clear
so deep that we can all come clean
to sell a fate that burns our eyes from our lives
well I say
will we be free in the end
and in the end will the water run clear
and all the sad disappear into clearwater clear
so deep that we can all come clean
clearwater clear
clearwater clear
clearwater clear

"This song was inspired by my hope that the world would soon heal itself. Watching events unfold on TV was maddening and after seeing so much negativity day in and out and I found myself turning off the TV one night and wandering over to the piano, sitting there for only a moment before starting to write. "Clearwater" was done an hour later. Most likely the fastest song I've ever written."
