Wash Me Clean
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If all the world could take a moment
To cradle back into slow motion 'cos it's all moving too fast
You had your shot you took your chances
All through you'd battle for the answers you were brave 'til the very last
Just like a wave on the ocean
There's forces that run so deep
I'm falling into the temptation
To let it wash all over me
Come and wash me clea-ea ea- ea- ean
Come and wash me clean a nervous step into the future
While the present shatters all around you
it's all moving too fast
And now the footprints of your failures
Seep into the safety of the harbour
leave it all in a dark past
Just like a wave on the ocean
There's forces that run so deep
I'm falling into the temptation
To let it wash all over me
Come and wash me clea-ea ea- ea- ean
Come and wash me clean
Come and wash me clean
