Down by the water
I saw her fall
Dawn by the river
She knew it all
She wore mourning
like a night dress
She was the absolute best
Her blue eyes could put you to the test
She always wore mourning best
Dawn by the ocean
She works best in motion
Her and I caused so much commotion
Down she falls
Dawn she calls
We fall like dolls
When Dawn she calls
Down by the water
She works harder
Dawn was smarter
She was my armor
I lost Dawn by the water
I was left alone to falter
I still call on her
Down by the water
