Lyrics

[Verse 1]
During the day come to me
Straight into my arms
I try to hold it
But it just ran through my fingers
The ocean did come to me
Straight into my arms
I tried to caress it
But it ran through my fingers
[Verse 2]
Water will keep runnin', rivers will turn
Water will keep runnin' and rivers will turn
Water will keep runnin', rivers will turn
Water will keep runnin' and rivers will turn
[Verse 3]
So how can I ever find
What I'm lookin' for
When it's been frozen
Stuck at the horizon?
The wind blows from north to south
But I'm still where I was
Keep taking some shirts off
And taking them off
[Verse 4]
Peel off the layers, peeling it off
Peeling off the layers, peeling it off
Peeling off the layers, peeling it off
Peeling off the layers, peeling it off
[Verse 5]
I wish I could find a cure
And to know my disease
But like nothing is heard of
The circle, the form of life
And that line will carry me
To the other side
That is looking just like this
With the same kind of open thought
[Verse 6]
Everything is open, leaking about
Everything is open, leaking about
Everything is open, leaking about
Everything is open, leaking about
