A song about a mystical vision.

lyrics

Saint Clair’s Promise
© Mark Jewett 2018

It might have been the water
It might have been the light
Might have been a silent voice
Called out to me that night
Once I saw that vision
I could not look away
I had to stop to hear
What the river had to say

I saw steel bones of industry
I saw fire reach for the sky
I could sense the presence of Saint Clair
In the water flowing by
She spoke to me in whispers
On that peaceful summer night
And left me with the promise …
“Everything will be alright”

I turned the car around
Walked right up to the shore
Gazed out where wooden ships
Had sailed long before
Thought of how this place has changed
All that’s come and gone
How the river never dwells
The river just moves on

There’s wisdom for the taking
If you take the time
There’s comfort in the quiet
That’s where I found mine

I saw steel bones of industry
Fire reach for the sky
I could sense the presence of Saint Clair
In the water flowing by
She spoke to me in whispers
On that peaceful summer night
And left me with the promise …
“Everything will be alright”

I believe it was the water
I believe it was the light
I believe the voice of Saint Clair
Called to me that night
