Lyrics for Turtle Island as interpreted by Jennynorth

Turtle Island Lyrics
Down the hill I’d hoped that I’d find
Something I could rest my hands on
In the distance sun is setting
Feel I’m jumping over hedges

By the dock of the pond Turtle Island
I will wait for you there creeping silently
I can keep you right behind me all my days in the…

In the waters tracing features
Did they scare hardened creatures?
In that murky green reflection
Did they warn you of dissection?

How, what, why, when?

By the dock of the pond Turtle Island
I will wait for you there creeping silently
I can keep you right behind me all my days in the…

How I want Olive (our love) to know
That inside me she will always grow
In all colors and sizes
You will always remain

By the dock of the pond Turtle Island
By the dock of the pond Turtle Island
I can keep you right behind me all my days in the sun

straight out of the Devotion booklet (I even kept the bad punctuation :D)

Down the hill i hoped that i'd find
Something i could rest my hands on
in the distant sun is setting
deer are jumping over hedges

By the dock of the pond Turtle Island
i will wait for you there, creeping
silently, i can't keep you
right behind me
All my days in the sun...

In the waters, trace her features,
did they scare you, hardened creatures
in that murky, green perfection
did they warn you of dissection...
How? what, why, when...?

How I want Olive to know,
that inside me she'll always grow.
In all colors and prizes
you will always
remain.
