Blog Action Day : When The Waters Rise

When The Waters Rise – Blog Action Day

My contribution to Blog Action Day, this year on the topic of climate change, is a song called “When The Waters Rise” here recorded from one of my live Webcasts ( Tuesdays 7.00pm )

When the Waters Rise Lyrics

When the waters rise, when the waters rise,

It’s started to rain, could go on forever
The puddles grow then join together As the waters rise

With energy a change of current
The trickle soon becomes a torrent And the waters rise

We’ll have to move abandon camp,
where once was desert now is damp And the waters rise

The balance kept by plants and sea
has pushed beyond the boundary
The gas surrounds us like a cloak
a million years gone up in smoke

With climate change, a world in motion,
Then the ice caps melt and join the ocean And the waters rise

In the short term we can head for the hills,
In the longer run we’ll all grow gills and the waters rise

The weather warnings made no mark,
Now there’s no time left to build the Ark As the waters rise..

  1. Hello from Russia!
    Can I quote a post in your blog with the link to you?

    • Yes, you can quote a reasonable amount of text in order to give context to something you write yourself, with accreditation and an active link back to my original writing. Or if you just want to embed the youTube video then that’s fine too.

  2. The best action one can take is to educate themselves at this site:

    The wool is being pulled over your eyes.
