Frogs

Have you ever seen the fish deep up from a quiet stream
Shine a moment in the light?
Then fall away again
Have you seen it, sister?
Will you come outside and see?
Have you ever seen the rain
Turn the earth to mud?
And watch the mud turn gold in the rising sun
Have you seen it, brother?
Will come outside and see?
Will you go with me tonight?
Down to the low land field
To hear the frogs singing
The air so hard and stiff
Will you go, sister?
Will you go with me tonight?
Down in the flooded fields
The earth is wet and dark
Down in the flooded fields
Beneath the falling stars
Lie down in the dirt, brother
Be a mirror to the night
Lie down in the dirt, sister
We are mirrors of the night
