Black Waters

Poets Of The Fall

Sunlight, the peace is broken
I'm awakened by its spear
Dark sight, sees only sorrows
And grows till nothing's clear

Oh, no, let me think this through
I still remember you
As you were

Black waters, flow in this river
Is it the end it holds beneath or my deliverance?
Black waters, carry me over
Where every tear is a kiss of forgiveness
Black waters, hungry fathoms
We make strange lovers

Morning has won the duel
Of renewal we're made to chase
Bewitching, as by rule
Us to don our unblemished grace

And all the things we left unsaid
Like fallen leaves lay dead
'Cause you're not there

Hold on, let me think this through
I still remember you
And the way we were

Black waters, flow in this river
Is it the end it holds beneath or my deliverance?
Black waters, carry me over
Where every tear is a kiss of forgiveness
Black waters, hungry fathoms
We make strange lovers

Twilight, just a token
A softly spoken symbol of peace
Go on, let nothing hold you down
No regrets, unbound
Walk on air

Black waters, flow in this river
Is it the end it holds beneath or my deliverance?
Black waters, carry me over
Where every tear is a kiss of forgiveness
Black waters, hungry fathoms
We make strange lovers
We make strange lovers
