Water, paper and clay
Air to carry you
And fire to burn the way
Water, paper and clay
Air to carry you
And fire to burn the way
Water to bless the child
Drink the holy wine
Rain and sea, the berry tree
Storm and calm, the will to be kind
Water, paper and clay
Air to carry you
And fire to burn the way
Bright paper leaves we'll throw
Dream of your wedding day
Ashes and pens, the confession to cleanse
The printed vow and the unwritten way
Water, paper and clay
Air to carry you
And fire to burn the way
Old clay to bury you
Bring you safe to ground
Salt and sand, the practical hand
The pull of the earth and the world going round
Water, paper and clay
Air to carry you
And fire to burn the way
Fire to burn and prove the clay
Fire to turn the ground
From the flames you'll fly and feel the air
And the rush of the wind will bear you down
Water, paper and clay
Air to carry you
And fire to burn the way
Water, paper and clay
Air to carry you
And fire to burn the way
Water, paper and clay
Air to carry you
And fire to burn the way
