I was washed in the river I was born the daughter of a sinner But our eyes are clear, and our limbs have grown Feel it beating in your bones Roll, roll along Roll over me Turn our sails towards the sea And find it warm in our blood Following me, till we're swept out to sea along the flood (Now and forever is gone Salt water is rushing my veins along Forever is gone) Darling, I've been sinking to The bottom of the ocean, through The eyes and wiser cries of all you do And the water is rushing around I'll decide the stroke of arms The hearts and heels we bring to harm And you can take the tide and run it through (As it pulls and it's falling down) We are the ones lost in the flood (Now and forever is gone, salt water is rushin' my veins feel heavy along And now I'm a weary a weight full of nothin' keeps draggin me down I am gone) Turn our sails towards and sea and find it warm (And nothing is ever atoned, a river, a flood, it keeps crushing my bones and I wander) In our blood, follow and wander
