West Of Roan - All the Water

To Rate
They come to me at night
In the dark when I'm asleep
They say "Come away, away and down
Way and down."

We go together to the forest
I see her running in the dark
The leaves move behind her as she runs
Her feet fall quiet on the ground

The river's dry, I will not cross
She takes my hand and we go in
I know where we are, from dreams I know
The river remembers my name

All the water in my body, comе through my eyes
All the watеr in my body, come through my eyes
All the water, make a river, away and down
All the water in my body, come through, come through

The winged ones circle over our heads
The night turns round, round and round
Her body is made of water now
Her body is made of eyes
The lady drags the empty bed
The winged ones call "Lou-lay, lay lou."
She pushes all her fingers down
Into the mud, lou-lay, lay-lou

All the water in my body, come through my eyes
All the water in my body, come through my eyes
All the water, make a river, away and down
All the water
All the water
All the water in my body, come through, come through
