Death hides in the water
waiting for the unwary
Death hides in the water
waiting for you to lose the path

Walk carefully in the water
watch where you tread
for even in the silver light
you can see their head

Wander in the moonlight
but look for the sunset
look for the sunrise
but don't look in the skies

Watch on the water
for violet, red, and blue
look carefully my child
as they look for you

Watch on the water
for fuschia, red and gold
look in the silver
look and maybe you'll grow old

Death waits in the water
Poison in a pretty face
Death waits in the water
patient to the last

Watch where you wander
under the moons silver glow
because the Shadow Lover
might call your name….
