Aint No/Shade/On Dis Side

Ain't no/ shade/ on dis side/ of the water/
            Ain't no/ shade/ on dis
 side/ of the water/
They came alone.
They came together
in pairs
in clusters
buzz
            buzz
                  buzz

tap tap tap tap tap
I'm with you but they're somewhere else.
Ain't no/ shade/ on dis side/ of the water/
            Ain't no/ shade/ on dis
 side/ of the water/
This sun makes it hard to see my little life
He couldn't survive the night
Rolling down the hill
precarious steps
I want to lead
I don't know you
              why are you so far behind
Ain't no/ shade/ on dis side/ of the water/
             Ain't no/ shade/ on dis side/ of the water/
Is this the side that looks the best
one two three four five six
the birds brought some dance to the scene.
I picture you picturing the water
Hoping that this place looks just as different
            As everywhere else.
No silence but the blue.
No silence but the heat.
Cause ain't no shade on this side of the water
                      Ain't no shade on this side of the water...

    Sometimes writing gets the better of me, but it's often showed the rougher pieces.
