lyrics

RUSHING RIVER

DO YOU WANT TO LAY DOWN IN THIS RUSHING RIVER
DO YOU WANT TO SET DOWN BY THE SHORE
DO YOU WANT TO DIVE IN TO THIS ENERGY
DO YOU WANT TO KEEP ME IN YOUR DREAM

DO YOU WANT TO RUN WITH ME TO MEXICO
DO YOU WANT HIDE WITH ME IN PERU
DO YOU WANT GUIDE MY DESPERATION HEARTBEAT
DO YOU WANT SOME SHELTER FROM THIS STORM

CHORUS:
I HAVE KNOWN MYSELF
I HAVE SEEN MYSELF
I HAVE FELT MYSELF
I AM DREAMING MYSELF

I HAVE SEEN MYSELF AS THE VIRGIN
AND I KNOW MYSELF AS A WHORE
BUT TODAY I SPEAK NO EVIL
AS I WAIT BESIDE YOUR DOOR

AND THE RIVER WILL BE OUR WITNESS
OUR CONFESSOR AND OUR FRIEND
AND TO HER ROCKY AND RUSHING RIVER
OUR BODIES WE COMMEND

CHORUS:
INSTRUMENTAL VERSE

OH HOLY HOLY SPIRIT
PROTECT ME IN THIS NIGHT
MY SOUL IS ALL FILLED WITH BLACKNESS
AND I CAN NOT SEE THE LIGHT

REPEAT 1ST VERSE, REPEAT LAST LINE
