In The Valley - Cobalt 60

In the valley

With no mountain

Where a river hides

It’s all quiet

It’s all silent

Wet and fresh

After the rain

In the woods

Where I know

Every leaf

Every thorn

Where I saw

In her eyes

All the shades

Of the dawn

Here I am In the glade

Where the grass

Was so tender

Here she comes

In the haze

Hovering among the trees

In the valley

With no mountain

Where a river hides

At this time

Of the year

Life is at work

Once again

Swarming on Every rock

Sweeping in Under the green

Welling up From the ground

As soon as It gets warmer

In the valley

With no mountain

Where a river hides

The river

There below

Quiet and gentle

Making no sound

The river

Where she drowned

Where her body

Could never be Found

When I’m as quiet

As I must be She strikes up A song for me With her voice

Crystal clear

A song

No one else can hear

In the valley

With no mountain

Where death took her life

Every leaf

Every reed

Spreads her song

Into the woods

She’s so close

She’s so far

And my heart is beating low

Something make me want to join her

In her sleep I cannot share

In the valley

With no mountain

Where a river hides

In the valley

With no mountain

Where a river hides

The river

There below

Quiet and gentle

Making no sound

The river

Where she drowned

Where her body

Could never be Found
