Description

Little Village 

[Verse 1]

In this little village

River wandering slow

Bare feet in the shallows

Where the dragonflies float

Kids chasing their shadows

Splashing gold in the stream

Their laughter skips across the water

Like stones over a dream

[Chorus]

Under the eaves at dusk

Counting the stars one by one

Stories pour out like tea in the dark

Till the night and our voices are done

Under the eaves at dusk

Old tales circle and spin

Leave the door a little open

So tomorrow can wander in

[Verse 2]

Courtyard smoke is curling

From a cracked clay stove

Neighbors calling supper

Down the dusty road

Someone hums a cradle song

Someone ties their hair

Crickets start their quiet choir

Filling up the air

[Chorus]

Under the eaves at dusk

Counting the stars one by one

Stories pour out like tea in the dark

Till the night and our voices are done

Under the eaves at dusk

Old tales circle and spin

Leave the door a little open

So tomorrow can wander in
