Crystal - Michael Martin Murphey

Sometimes when my life is dark and stormy

I close my eyes and try hard to recall

I see your face and trouble fades before me

When I’m staring in a crystal ball

Crystal, was the water

And crystal, was the sand

And crystal was our pure love

Like the water running all around the town

And crystal is my memory

When I think about the moonlight

Shining in her eyes and on the town

And crystal will be this winter

Frozen tears

You’re not around

For awhile we were just like children

We were diving far beneath a waterfall

As we tumbled far beneath that rolling river

I said «Jesus why do I go back at all?»

From the crystal, in the water

From the crystal, in the sand

From the crystal in our pure love

Like the water running all around the town

And crystal is my memory

When I think about the moonlight

Shining in her eyes and on the town

And crystal will be this winter

Frozen tears

You’re not around
