Peter Gabriel — Washing of the Water Secret World Live

[Verse 1] So deep, so wide Will you take me on your back for a ride? If I should fall Would you swallow me deep inside? River, show me how to float I feel like I'm sinking down Thought that I could get along But here in this water My feet won't touch the ground And I need something to turn myself around [Chorus] Going away, away toward the sea River deep Can you lift up and carry me? [Verse 2] Roll on, roll on through the heartland Until the sun has left the sky River, river, carry me high 'Til the washing of the water Will make it all alright Let your waters reach me Like she reached me tonight [Bridge] Letting go, is so hard The way it's hurting now To get this love untied So tough to stay with this thing 'Cause if I follow through I face what I deny I get those hooks out of me And I take out the hooks that I sunk deep in your side Kill that fear of emptiness, loneliness I hide [Chorus] River, oh, river River running deep Bring me something That will let me get to sleep [Outro] In the washing of the water Will you take it all away? Bring me something To take this pain away
