There are many other moving songs by this talented singer. It's one of my favorite CDs & I recommend it too you. And Joe, thanks for typing the words to this particular song. |
Subject: ADD: Swimming to Other Side From: Joe Offer Date: 18 Sep 01 - 07:30 PM Oh, that's a song by Pat Humphries, who seems to be able to write instant classics. I found it here (click), but made some corrections in their transcripition (I looked at the CD booklet). -Joe Offer (e-mail sent)- SWIMMING TO THE OTHER SIDE (Pat Humphries) Chorus: (same melody as verse) We are living 'neath the great Big Dipper We are washed by the very same rain We are swimming in the stream together Some in power, some in pain We can worship this ground we walk on Cherishing the beings that we live beside Loving spirits will live forever We're all swimming to the other side. I am alone, and I am searching, hungering for answers in my time I am balanced at the brink of wisdom, I'm impatient to receive a sign I move forward with my senses open, imperfection it will be my crime In humility, I will listen, we're all swimming to the other side On this journey through thoughts and feelings, binding intuition, my head, my heart I am gathering the tools together, I'm preparing to do my part All of those who have come before me, band together to be my guide Loving lessons that I will follow, we're all swimming to the other side When we get there we'll discover, all of the gifts we've been given to share Have been with us since life's beginning and we never noticed they were there We can balance at the brink of wisdom, never recognize that we've arrived Loving spirits will live together, we're all swimming to the other side from the 2001 Pat Humphries CD, Hands Also recorded by Lui Collins, who writes darn good songs herself. JRO I think the tune sounds like "Crossing the Water," by Bill Staines, but I may well be talking through my hat. |
Subject: Needed: We're all Swimming to Other Side From: GUEST,Len Wallace Date: 18 Sep 01 - 06:00 PM Hi again folks, Traveling through upstate New York two days ago I tuned in a folk music show with a song that featured words in the chorus, "We're all swimming to the other side". Does anyone know the song and the lyrics? The song is about how in the end we are all people struggling together. One line states "some of us in comfort, some of us in pain". Many thanks.
