All In All

All in all it's just as well

Water moves and earth is still

Time is slower still

Half an hour is thirty days

Nothing moves at all this way

Hold on, I can wait

Life lies burning

I am only just as much as I can make myself

And I lie burning

Life is only just a part of it

I can't help myself

All in all it's just the sun

Catch wind and hold it down

Cold when evening comes

All in all it's just as well

Catch the river, make it still

Water turns the mill
