Lyrics
Dewdrop, dewdrop, light on my skin
Cool within, delicate and glistening
Dewdrop, dewdrop, rest on a leaf
Sweet relief, from the heat of summertime
Dewdrop, dewdrop, run like a tear
For my fear, that we do not hold you dear enough
For you are
Sweet succour to a desert flower
You?re the power of life where death
Is your shadow in the noonday sun
Beauty reborn, on a Mayday morn
On a fairy hill I will, drink the dew
Raise a salute to you
Dewdrop, dewdrop, quencher of thirst
Always first, on a salted ocean earth
Dewdrop, dewdrop, starter of war
Silent lord, always damned, abridged and forded
Dewdrop, dewdrop, precious reward
From the source of the rivers of my soul
Dewdrop, dewdrop, mother of all
