"Song of the Bayou"("Chanson du Bayou"):

Once summer came true ,
Summer was you,
River was blue,
I sat by your side,
Watching the tides,
River is wide.

Once when life was bleak,
You made it sweet,
River is deep.

Down by the shore,
Down near the shore,
Down by the shore,
Down near the shore,
We sat where the river was blue.

Counting the tides,
Watching the tides,
Counting the tides,
Watching the tides,
We stood where the river was blue.

Down by the shore,
So near the shore,
Down by the shore,
So near the shore,
We stood where the river ran blue.

Once when we were young,
We saw the sun,
When we were one.
Once so long ago,
You were my beau,
You touched my soul.

Once when life was grand,
You held my hand,
You'd understand.

Once summer came true ,
Once with you,
River was blue.

This does have a sing song effect of a poem. Words pour out. Do you channel them when you put your songs together? Would like to know your approach. Please enlighten me if that is possible. Bill Murray.
