Water, Paper & Clay

Water, paper and clay, air to carry you and fire to burn the way.
Water, paper and clay, air to carry you and fire to burn the way.
Water to bless the child drink the holy wine, rain and sea,
The berry tree, storm and calm and the will to be kind.
Water, paper and clay, air to carry you and fire to burn the way.
Bright paper leaves we'll throw, dream of your wedding day,
Ashes and pens the confession to cleanse,
The printed vow and the unwritten way
Water, paper and clay, air to carry you and fire to burn the way.
Cold clay to bury you and bring you safe to ground,
Salt and sand the practical hand the pull of the earth
And the world going round
Water, paper and clay, air to carry you and fire to burn the way.
Fire to burn and prove the clay, fire to turn the ground,
From the flames you'll fly and feel the air
And the rush of the wind will bear you down
Water, paper and clay, air to carry you and fire to burn the way.
Water, paper and clay, air to carry you and fire to burn the way.
Water, paper and clay, air to carry you and fire to burn the way.
