   "LULLABY OF THE RIVERS"
Bob Patterson © 1997(BMI) 
From the CD - A Place  in My Heart 

If I could only release time, oh, I'd go back a hundred years
To a place where I could listen to the lullaby of the rivers.
For now and then there will arise, out of the waters, Indian spirits,
To tell me how they got their names, and sing the lullaby of the rivers.

Oklawaha, Ichetucknee, Econfina, Withlacoochee
Apalachicola, Wakulla, Wacissa, Aucilla,
Caloosahatchee, Kissimmee, Ochlockonee, Choctahatchee
Econolahatchee and the Suwanee are singing the lullaby of the rivers.

If you have ears enough for listening, oh, you can hear what they are saying.
You can hear them all singing the lullaby of the rivers.
The moving water makes the music, the pureness creates the healing
The reflections give up the secrets of the lullaby of the rivers.
