CYNDI LAUPER lyrics : "Water's Edge"

I went to the water's edge, forgot I couldn't swim
I went to the water's edge, all ready to jump in
I saw the water shimmer

I heard the wind howl
I saw my own reflection
I just can't see it now


You say it's the way of the world
To somehow co-exists

That eventually life unfurls
A path to happiness


So I whisper your little secret
And repeat it under my breath
I'll save it for you in my heart

In case we both forget

Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me

I am gripped by a loneliness
Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I'd be released in your tenderness

I'd be released in your tenderness

I went to the water's edge and saw my life eclipse

I went to the water's edge and then felt myself slip
I dreamed that I was floating, just coast until I grew fins
I want to catch this tide back home and feel you again


Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I am gripped by a loneliness

Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I'd be released in your tenderness
Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me

I am gripped by a loneliness
Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I'd be released in your tenderness

I'd be released in your tenderness
I'd be released in your tenderness
