THE MANHATTAN TRANSFER lyrics : "Agua"

(Music by Djavan; Lyrics by Brock Walsh)
Here beneath the moon tonight
So pale and fragile

Is that shining in the distance I see
Real or just imagined?
Imagined mirages of agua


Somewhere in these sands that spread before me
There lies a silent spring for me

Que agua

The earth without the heavens' rain

Becomes powder and gravel
Life without a spirit whole
In time becomes a thread unraveled

Or traveled in the circles of agua

And lately there grows a thirst inside me

With only hunger to guide me
Que agua


Agua ever deep
Agua ever wide
Agua ever still and silent


Flowing into sleep finding what we hide
Dreaming what cannot be sighted


Agua ever warm
Current ever strong

Agua ever, ever lasting

Gathering in storm

Pouring out in song
Washing over understanding


Agua
Agua deep
Agua so wide

Carry me to your shore
Carry me agua


Agua
Agua deep
Agua so wide

Carry me to your shore
Carry me agua


[Repeat]
