In the Old Times

Hito, he had red hair
And in the old days, 
Oh any music and we danced
Even if there wasn’t a sound
But the moon singing in the trees, a star
Or two that we could see
Above the canyons,
The music could change
And on we went, well
You know, on in 
This life. 
In this life
We carry on, riding
Currents, 
Maybe, even, into the next.
Sometimes right before he’d 
Come to find me, I already knew, 
I’d watch him, narrowing my eyes 
To better see him, 
Watch to see him coming 
Through the cottonwoods 
By his place down on the river
The currents sparkling, 
Part of the dance
