"The Well" lyrics

"The Well"

A mother reaching out with a tiny mouth
"I can't just watch the boy die
All alone, and both of us crying"
The sand gets wet
There's two little salty piles
Mother and the child alone
Then God, reaching out with mighty hands
"The well was always there
Fill the skin and give the boy a drink
Let the sand get wet"
There is always plenty of water
Mother and the child
