lyrics

It was a hot summer Sunday
You were walking with your brother
You were walking in the water
Picking up one stone at a time
Pick them up, and drop them down
Nothing to slow you down
You just kick off your shoes
And walk on

You are weightless, my little brown eyed girl
You are weightless in this heavy world

You held out your hands
You watched the wind in the leaves above you
In the meadow by the river
In the clouds in the sky
I called out your name
It didn’t matter that you didn’t answer
You were safe as I watched you from the shore

You are weightless, my little brown eyed girl
You are weightless in this heavy world

And if I wasn’t tied to you
I think that I might float away
Sometimes I want to
Sometimes I do

All of a sudden
Your dreaming was interrupted
By a man and a woman
And a little white one-eyed dog
Who splashed you in the water
And you cried out for me
I went in to pick you up and we walked home

You are weightless, my little brown eyed girl
You are weightless in this heavy world
You are weightless in this heavy world
You are weightless in this heavy world
