Description of Submission:  "In this song I share my journey of reconciling my spiritual and religious beliefs with my sexuality.  Water is a symbol of faith, in God, in another person, and in love.  The music, lyrics, and arrangement are original to me, and I recorded and produced it myself, using Protools and other home recording equipment.  The guitar and vocals are mine.  However, music is collaborative by nature, and I brought in some friends to play on the track. Glockenspiel, additional vocals and production assistance by Tim Lowly; Percussion by Ryan Hammer" - Rebecca

Why Karen and Melody Liked It:
We loved the music and Rebecca's voice.  We found ourselves humming the melody over and over.  It was a really catchy tune.

Water is a Symbol Lyrics

i am too young to know what this means, but it feels right
send me down, and raise me into holy light

faith says one foot forward, love leads from the inside
water is a symbol my future is in your hands
water is a symbol my future is in your hands

i try to be like you want me to be
and love only as directed
but i met her in my dreams
and it feels right

faith says one foot forward, lvoe leads from the inside
water is a symbol my future is in your hands
water is a symbol my future is in your hands
