Across The Water-Neneh Cherry[00:00:00]
To the fickle let it drop [00:00:00]
We have the power to sustain [00:00:02]
Like the motor needs the food [00:00:03]
To bring more power to our brain [00:00:05]
Now we bought it back [00:00:06]
So let me make it clean [00:00:08]
Since our mother's gone, it always [00:00:10]
Seems to rain - [00:00:13]
And the boose, and the friends and the party [00:00:13]
Never ends! [00:00:16]
No excuse for behavior than no one can defend [00:00:17]
We reflect in the quiet [00:00:20]
Times inside our heads [00:00:22]
And get thanks from our children [00:00:23]
Tuck tight sweet leap in their beds [00:00:25]
Inside their heads [00:00:30]
Trickling water dripping down [00:00:33]
Slow like some rivers without a sound [00:00:41]
Passed many times since you've been on my side [00:00:48]
I'm still here, but I keep you deep inside [00:00:54]
With my two hands across the water [00:01:15]
With my two feet in the sea [00:01:18]
My fear is for my daughters, [00:01:22]
But good god will show them me [00:01:25]
Take our lambs off to the slaughter, [00:01:29]
Take their lives so perfectly [00:01:32]
Like your bricks are filled with mortar [00:01:35]
Cast your wisdom to the brede [00:01:39]
Cracks? in fall lines [00:01:56]
Nyc talks to me [00:01:59]
Slow like some rivers on our mother's tv [00:02:03]
Nyc she speaks to me in tongues [00:02:10]
Keeps me to her breast, pumps air into my lungs [00:02:17]
With my two hands across the water [00:02:30]
With my two feet in the sea [00:02:34]
My fear is for my daughters, [00:02:37]
But good god will show them me [00:02:40]
Take our lambs off to the slaughter, [00:02:44]
Take their lives so perfectly [00:02:47]
Like your bricks are filled with mortar [00:02:51]
Cast your wisdom to the brede [00:02:54]
With my two hands across the water [00:02:57]
With my two feet in the sea [00:03:01]
My fear is for my daughters, [00:03:04]
But good god will show them me [00:03:08]
Take our lambs off to the slaughter, [00:03:11]
Take their lives so perfectly [00:03:14]
Like your bricks are filled with mortar [00:03:18]
Cast your wisdom to the brede [00:03:21]
