| Lyrics |
She stands before you nakedyou can see it, you can taste it,and she comes to you light as the breeze.
Now you can drink it or you can nurse it,it don't matter how you worshipas long as you'redown on your knees.
So I knelt there at the delta,at the alpha and the omega,at the cradle of the river and the seas.
And like a blessing come from heavenfor something like a second
I was healed and my heartwas at ease.O baby I waitedso long for your kissfor something to happen,oh something like this.
And you're weak and you're harmlessand you're sleeping in your harnessand the wind going wildin the trees,and it ain't exactly prisonbut you'll never be forgivenfor whatever you've donewith the keys.O baby I waited ...
It's dark now and it's snowing
O my love I must be going,
The river has started to freeze.
And I'm sick of pretending
I'm broken from bending
I've lived too long on my knees.
Then she dances so gracefuland your heart's hard and hatefuland she's nakedbut that's just a tease.
And you turn in disgustfrom your hatred and from your loveand comes to youlight as the breeze.O baby I waited ...
There's blood on every braceletyou can see it, you can taste it,and it's Please babyplease baby please.
And she says, Drink deeply, pilgrimbut don't forget there's still a womanbeneath thisresplendent chemise.
So I knelt there at the delta,at the alpha and the omega,I knelt there like one who believes.
And the blessings come from heavenand for something like a second
I'm cured and my heartis at ease
