Water fades away so slow
Sun beats down with heavy glow
Voices whisper as they flow
Drying lagoon our hearts below
Fish are gone the birds have flown
Cracked earth cries an ancient tone
Once a place where love was shown
Now a desert all alone
Drying lagoon where have you gone
Once alive now you are withdrawn
Every memory turns to dawn
Drying lagoon the days go on
Lush green land now brittle brown
Wind just dances all around
Life once thrived now makes no sound
Drying lagoon lost and found
Mirage of what used to be
Reflections fade can't you see
Nature's way it took its plea
Drying lagoon sets us free
Tears we shed to fill your bed
Nature's grasp not easily spread
Hope is what we softly thread
Drying lagoon where dreams were fed
