《Across The Water》歌词

[00:00:00] Across The Water-Neneh Cherry

[00:00:00] To the fickle let it drop

[00:00:02] We have the power to sustain

[00:00:03] Like the motor needs the food

[00:00:05] To bring more power to our brain

[00:00:06] Now we bought it back

[00:00:08] So let me make it clean

[00:00:10] Since our mother's gone, it always

[00:00:13] Seems to rain -

[00:00:13] And the boose, and the friends and the party

[00:00:16] Never ends!

[00:00:17] No excuse for behavior than no one can defend

[00:00:20] We reflect in the quiet

[00:00:22] Times inside our heads

[00:00:23] And get thanks from our children

[00:00:25] Tuck tight sweet leap in their beds

[00:00:30] Inside their heads

[00:00:33] Trickling water dripping down

[00:00:41] Slow like some rivers without a sound

[00:00:48] Passed many times since you've been on my side

[00:00:54] I'm still here, but I keep you deep inside

[00:01:15] With my two hands across the water

[00:01:18] With my two feet in the sea

[00:01:22] My fear is for my daughters,

[00:01:25] But good god will show them me

[00:01:29] Take our lambs off to the slaughter,

[00:01:32] Take their lives so perfectly

[00:01:35] Like your bricks are filled with mortar

[00:01:39] Cast your wisdom to the brede

[00:01:56] Cracks? in fall lines

[00:01:59] Nyc talks to me

[00:02:03] Slow like some rivers on our mother's tv

[00:02:10] Nyc she speaks to me in tongues

[00:02:17] Keeps me to her breast, pumps air into my lungs

[00:02:30] With my two hands across the water

[00:02:34] With my two feet in the sea

[00:02:37] My fear is for my daughters,

[00:02:40] But good god will show them me

[00:02:44] Take our lambs off to the slaughter,

[00:02:47] Take their lives so perfectly

[00:02:51] Like your bricks are filled with mortar

[00:02:54] Cast your wisdom to the brede

[00:02:57] With my two hands across the water

[00:03:01] With my two feet in the sea

[00:03:04] My fear is for my daughters,

[00:03:08] But good god will show them me

[00:03:11] Take our lambs off to the slaughter,

[00:03:14] Take their lives so perfectly

[00:03:18] Like your bricks are filled with mortar

[00:03:21] Cast your wisdom to the brede
