I'm the cold cold water
In the long deep river
What is luring you
Is what will cause the deadly shiver
And all that's sacred
Is all that withers
And you were never keen
Resisting all that's been
Forever I remain
In waters never seen
I'm your personal mirror
Cut to fit you forever
Evolving so that you
Can have your mortal stirrup
'Cause all that's sacred
Is all that withers
And you were never keen
Resisting all that's been
Forever I remain
In waters never seen
When I saw the river
The sun was up and blinding and
On the surface gleaming
With no sight down
Should I stay 'til dusk
But I'd trifle away the joyous day
So I kept on wandering
So alone
I see it can't be wrong
When we are always drawn
To cast our float along
And stay until we're done
I'm the cold cold water
In the long deep river
What is luring you
Is what will cause the deadly shiver
And all that's sacred
