lyrics

well witcher
brought life from the top of a hill
that moments before lay stamped
browned overlooking the salty blue
where the Tunitas makes its way
"small" life long gone
atop cracked soil of a reservoir gone dry
two days rain
a watershed scale
shown to those who know where to look
a foreign word to many
as faucets run
while teeth are brushed
and toilets flushed

"Water says this, 'Wherever you put me I'll be in my home. I am awfully smart. Lead me out of my springs, lead me from my rivers, but I came out of the ocean and I shall go back into the ocean. You can dig a ditch and put me in it, but I only go so far and I am out of sight. I am awfully smart. When I am out of sight I am on my way back home.' "
--Norris Hundley, Jr. "The Great Thirst: Californians and Water—A History, Revised Edition" (2001)
