Oh yeah.
Somewhere's a river in the middle o'this block
Skeleton bones in the Blavet rock.
Nothing moves in the depths below
Where there's no flow
So I hold my breath, and I dive down deep.
Crazy for a reason; wild in my sleep,
Just when I say gonna give up this fight
I get the message from the stillness inside.
Let the water have its way
Let the water have its way
Let it carry you over
Let it carry you through
Let the water have its way
Come on wash my fears away. (way…)
Somewhere in the distance is a promised land,
So I followed my roots from the mud'nd the sand.
Look a little boat of old drift wood.
And pray it's good.
Well God knows I been playing so safe,
Feel bound to drown: dust on the waves.
Don't know where I'm headed on this open sea,
But it carries the boat,
And the boat carries me.
Let the water have its way
Let the water have its way (O.Oh)
Oh let it carry me over
Let it carry me through
Let the water have its way
Oh yeah (Oooh Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Let it carry me, (carry me) let it carry me
(Oooh Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Let the waves wash
The waves wash
The waves wash me clean
Oh yeah
Let the water have its way
Let the water have its way (way.way.….)
Oh I had a memory of centuries of pain,
Hand-me-downs are the crying shame.
Locked in my body, locked in my soul
There was no flow.
And here I've been digging for an under ground well
When all I needed was the rain to fall.
I swear these are God's own tears
Soothing my eyes after all these years. (after all these years)
Let the water have its way
Let the water have its way
Oh let it carry me over
Let it carry me through
Let the water have its way
Let the water have its way
Oh let it carry me over
Let it carry me through
Let the water have its way (way.way.….)
Let the water have its way
Feel it washing away my sin
Wash away my sin
Oh, Let the water have its way (way.way….)
