come lay down in the water,
we're all sons and daughters,
rest your head on the altar, oh,
come lay down in the water
piroutte, single step
won't you spin me around the room,
like a marionette?
and lonely maestro
spin me real slow,
I just need something to get me through
the thick of it.
I have everything, from time to time (x2)
come lay down in the water,
we're all sons and daughters,
rest your head on the altar, oh,
come lay down in the water
these silent offerings,
that only cowards sing
oh darling I was never free, for the taking
we had everything from time to time
yeah,
we had everything (x2)
come lay down in the water,
we're all sons and daughters,
rest your head on the altar, oh,
come lay down in the water
yeah, we had everything
come lay down in the water, erhhh
we're all sons and daughters,
in the water
