Hmmm.  Maybe this should be a part of the FAQ list that Jorn posts.  It 
seems to get requested fairly often still.

>From a long-ago posting:

These lyrics were declared "official" by John Carder Bush:

        Can't you see where memories are kept bright
        Tripping on the water like a laughing girl
        Time in her eyes is spawning past light
        Run on the ocean and the woman unfurls
        Holding all the love that waits for you here
        Catch us now for I am your future
        A kiss on the wind and we'll make the land

        Come over here to where When lingers
        Waiting in this empty world
        Waiting for Then when the life spray cools
        For Now does ride in on the curl of a wave
        And you will dance with me in the sunlit pools

        We are of the going water and the gone
        We are of water and the holy land of water
        And all that's to come runs in
        With the thrust on the strand
