The Afton |
| The dam on our doorstep |
| Frozen over, undiscovered |
| Covered nature’s sculptures fine |
| And the man-made beauty shines |
| For the first time in life |
| I behold the Afton’s might |
| And the waterworks don’t blight |
| Nor the railings mar this sight |
| To see the joy in the mundane |
| Feel the life force in the plain |
| Is that not the why you came? |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| To the Afton |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| To the Afton |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| To the Afton |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| Still you’re leaving, all the same |
| For the first time in life |
| I behold the Afton’s might |
| And the waterworks don’t blight |
| Nor the railings mar this sight |
| To see the joy in the mundane |
| Feel the life force in the plain |
| Is that not the why you came? |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| To the Afton |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| To the Afton |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| To the Afton |
| Still you’re leaving… |
| Still you’re leaving |
| All the same |
