The Cure - The Drowning Man lyrics
She stands twelve feet above the flood She stands twelve feet above the flood She stares She stares Alone Alone Across the water Across the water The loneliness grows and slowly The loneliness grows and slowly Fills her frozen body Fills her frozen body Sliding downwards Sliding downwards One by one her senses die One by one her senses die The memories fade The memories fade And leave her eyes And leave her eyes Still seeing worlds that never were Still seeing worlds that never were And one by one the bright birds leave her ... And one by one the bright birds leave her ... Starting at the violent sound Starting at the violent sound She tries to turn She tries to turn But final But final Noiseless Noiseless Slips and strikes her soft dark head Slips and strikes her soft dark head The water bows The water bows Receives her Receives her And drowns her at its ease And drowns her at its ease Drowns her at its ease Drowns her at its ease I would have left the world all bleeding I would have left the world all bleeding Could i only help you love Could I only help you love The fleeting shapes The fleeting shapes So many years ago So many years ago So young and beautiful and brave So young and beautiful and brave Everything was true Everything was true It couldn't be a story It couldn't be a story I wish it was all true I wish it was all true I wish it couldn't be a story I wish it couldn't be a story The words all left me The words all left me Lifeless Lifeless Hoping Hoping Breathing like the drowning man Breathing like the drowning man Oh fushia Oh Fushia You leave me You leave me Breathing like the drowning man Breathing like the drowning man Breathing like the drowning man Breathing like the drowning man |
