Haunted By Waters Words and Music by Dave Olsen


Those times were beautiful to me
There were no barriers, we felt like we were free
Swimming in the river and playing in the sun
Lying on the rocks and listening to the river run

But I wish I could have known you better
And I wish I only knew how to help you

Chorus:
I'm haunted by waters
The river runs back and forth through time
I've never forgotten
My life is mirrored in those waters
I'm haunted by waters
The river is running through my mind
I've never forgotten
Those times that we shared on the river
I'm haunted by waters
Listening
Listening to their words

In those days we knew that we were strong
We always had a need to hear that river's song
Trickled down from mountains into streams
At night that river always flowed into our dreams

And I know that I didn't understand you
Though it never kept me from loving you

Chorus

I always come back to this place
Follow the river on its path through time and space
The rhythms of nature always fit
All things merge to one and a river runs through it

And I know that you are all around me
And I know that I will join you on the river again

Chorus
The river runs back and forth through time



This song is based on Norman Maclean's story
