A summer's day so long ago   A thousand boats dancing on the bay   I came to you inside a dream   We both held hands and fell into thee water   You never claimed to know me well   The dark-eyed son, the priviliged man   You found me bitter, you thought me cold   Well, now I'm gonna make you understand   My mother died, my father cried   He left me lonely by the waterside   Waterside so deep and wide   If I follow, maybe I will find her   Beyond the salt and spray   The current carried her away   Beyond the salt and sprey   The current carried her away   I can't outrun my destiny   Tell me who will sing a song for me   Darkness, darkness cover me   By my own hands the way it has to be   My mother died, my father cried   You will find me by the waterside   Waterside so deep and wide   If I follow, maybe I will find her   If I follow, maybe I will find her
