Ian Hunter - Wash Us Away lyrics

Your rating:

(Ian Hunter)



On the very first decade that we got to dream in

Our fathers were angry, our mother's were screamin'

At the clothes we were wearin' and the music we got off on

Hitler was dead, welcome to Babylon



Carved our initials out across the sand

The heart and the arrow, no-one understands

Then the tide rolled in and everything ran

And washed us away, washed us away, washed us away



Up in the attic ambition was burning

Now my fingers were bleedin' but the tables were turning

Down in the city the future was beckoning

And I hated myself on the day of reckoning

(Oh yeah)

Carved our initials on top of the cake

The heart and the arrow - the rattle and the snake

How was I to know that the Earth was gonna break

And wash us away, wash us away, wash us away



Everything's temporary in this world

Ain't it a shame when you lose someone

Here tomorrow, gone today

Wash us away, wash us away, wash us away



There was never a fool like a young fool alone in

A world without someone he can find a home in

And for all the wrong reasons we rescued each other

You bandaged my heart I never would recover

(ohhhh)

No river runs true, it always takes a twist

Hearts can be broken, arrows gonna miss

How was I to know that it was gonna come down to this

And wash us away



And we wrote our names on the Dead Sea Scrolls

The young and the restless, the brave and the bold

How was we to know it was gonna get outta control

And wash us away, wash us away, wash us away, wash us away, wash us away,wash us away, wash us away
