Live bass and live vocals on this: piano, strings, flute, acoustic guitar, and percussion are all sequenced. I added the 'waterfall' intro-outro sound-effect as an afterthought.

I'm still having computer problems but at least I have the machine back and so I'm able to remix/post something.

I wrote this in October 2004: the first song I’d written and recorded in about 15 years, and one that sort of came from the mind straight onto the computer. A couple of the chords I could hear but not instantly work out, and may sound a little weird.

Verse1
I sat beside a waterfall and looked into her eyes.
The air was cool, with trees so tall -
Which caught the sounds then, wrapped in leaves,
They threw them back so to deceive me.

Verse2
I slept beside the waterfall within her rhythmic sighs;
And rumbling, tumbling dreams did call
Me down to drown where darkness keeps
Her pain, and sadness never sleeps.

Verse3
I dreamt beside the waterfall, a place where wonder hides.
Then passing through a glistening wall
To shifting caves that call and gleam
I find the soul, the source, the stream.

Verse4
I wake beside a river bed and look into her eyes,
Relieved to see that it is dead.
Now hope grows there and love appears,
No more falling, no more tears -

No more tears.
No more tears.
