Stones In The River Bed - Orchestral Version

by Donna Lewis and David Baron

/

about

Feeling fortunate that we can work from home and keep creating. David Baron and I decided to write something together remotely about these times that we’re all going through. Even though I can’t be with my family and hug them, I feel blessed that I can see them and talk to them every day to know that they’re safe. The heart of the song is all about missing our loved ones on the other side of the ocean.

In times like these, I remember my mother’s words, full of kindness, always hopeful, memories of crossing the beautiful Ogmore river in Wales. I hope this song brings comfort, courage, and hope to everyone.

lyrics

I’m in a cave within a cave
I dissolve into the darkness
You came into my dream
A sealed stillness

Through the mountain mist
I call
Call your name

Feel the green blades between my fingers
As I shut out
The weeping face of the world
And your holy words
They’re like water
Like stones in the riverbed
They lead me to you

Lost in the music
Of vanishing violins
My mind opens
It’s a place to start

Feel the green blades
Between my fingers
As I shut out
The weeping face of the world
And your holy words
They’re like water
Like stones in the riverbed
They lead me to you

What’s it all about
What's it all about

Across the ocean
I feel you
And I dream of you
In the weeping face of the world
And your holy words
They’re like water
Like stones in the riverbed
They lead me to you

Hold each other close
So I can see you
I can see you
I can see you smile

Hold each other close
Cause I can’t feel you
I can’t touch you
But I can see you
To know that you’re safe

It’s all I need
It’s all I need
