Antônio Carlos Jobim – Waters of March Lyrics

Artist: Antônio Carlos Jobim
Song: Waters of March

Waters of March
Words and music by: Antonio Carlos Jobim
A stick, a stone
It’s the end of the road

It’s the rest of a stump
It’s a little alone
It’s a sliver of gla**
It is life, it’s the sun

It is night, it is death
It’s a trap, it’s a gun
The oak when it blooms
A fox in the brush

A knot in the wood
The song of a thrush
The wood of the wind
The cliff, a fall

A scratch, a lump
It is nothing at all
It’s the wind blowing free
It’s the end of the slope

It’s a beam, it’s a void
It’s a hunch, it’s a hope
And the riverbank talks
Of the waters of March;

It’s the end of the strain
It’s the joy in your heart
The foot, the ground
The flesh and the bone

The beat of the road
A slingshot stone
A fish, a flash
A silvery glow

A fight, a bet
The range of a bow
The bed of the well
The end of the line

The dismay in the face
It’s a loss, it’s a find
A spear, a spike
A point, a nail

A drip, a drop
The end of the tale
A truckload of bricks
In the soft morning light

It’s the shot of the gun
In the dead of the night
A mile, a must
A thrust, a bump

It’s a girl, it’s a rhyme
It’s a cold, it’s the mumps
The plan of the house
The body in bed

And the car that got stuck
It’s the mud, it’s the mud
A float, a drift
A flight, a wing

A hawk, a quail
The promise of spring
And the riverbank talks
Of the waters of March

It’s the joy in your heart
It’s the joy in your heart
A snake, a stick
It is John, it is Joe

It’s a thorn in your hand
Or a cut on your toe
A point, a grain
A bee, a bite

A blink, a buzzard
A sudden stroke of night
A pin, a needle
A sting, a pain

A snail, a wasp
A riddle, a stain
A pa** in the moutains
A horse and a mule

In the distance the shelves
Grow three shadows of blue
And the riverbank talks
Of the waters of March

It’s the promise of life
In your heart, in your heart
A stick, a stone
The end of the load

The rest of the stump
A lonesome road
A sliver of gla**
A life, the sun

A night, the death
The end of the run
And the riverbank talks
Of the waters of March

It’s the end of all strain
It’s the joy in your heart
It’s the joy in your heart
It’s the joy in your heart

It’s the joy in your heart
