Niagara Falls

Water's falling off the edge
  and on and on it goes
some stays suspended in the air
  but all the rest still flows

People come from all around
  to watch the water pour
at midnight all the lights turn off
  but still you hear the roar

The captivating spirit of
  the water, mist and rocks
once drew the natives here and now
  the tourist ferry docks

The newlyweds, the suicides,
  the barrel-riding thrill,
and millions more here just to gaze
  from up atop the hill
