Lyrics for Turtle Island

Down the hill I'd hoped that I'd find Something I could rest my hands on In the distance, sun is setting Deer are jumping over hedges By the dock of the pond, Turtle Island I will wait for you there Creeping silently I can't keep you right behind me All my days in the In the waters, trace her features Did they scare you, hardened creatures In that murky green perfection Did they warn you of dissection How What Why When By the dock of the pond, Turtle Island I will wait for you there Creeping silently I can't keep you right behind me All my days in the How I want Olive to know That inside me, she will always grow In all colors and prizes You will always remain By the dock of the pond, Turtle Island By the dock of the pond, Turtle Island I can't keep you right behind me All my days in the sun
