Once upon a time you'd talk to me How your wild rivers were reaching out for me And fed into an ocean of love, if I had read you carefully You swore to lead me through my sleep And even in times when I should not weep You'd find a way to cleanse my soul, come to drown my restless feet While all those simple things that I had not Turned to old friends that I soon forgot I burned all their memory solemnly, still waiting for your flood Till there won't remain that many things to ask Staying on-shore had to become my greatest task Got to find a way to cleanse my soul on my own and drown my restless feet Oh can't you see how I'm longing for you To take me with you on a river of excess Will need a rainstorm to fill up my emptiness Don't you hear how I'm calling out for you Come wash me over with your current full of passion Your raging streams shall make me melt in open seas of caress
