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.
Feeling the warmth of the sun
Wash across the ocean
Rise into the heavens above
Rivers have spun, rivers have spun
I wanna feel something new
Don't wanna leave this scene with you
Something gonna happen here soon
And I'm getting caught in the middle
I'm staying yeah you could stay with me come on
We're burning brighter in the sun
why you wanna spoil my fun?
Try to let go, yeah I know
We're in a whirlpool uh-oh
Spinning faster in a river so slow
I'm gonna lose it it's true
Getting faster in a river so blue
What's the matter Charly with you?
I got a feeling that you're gonna come through
Searching for some sign of life
On the tail of killing time
Just when things are looking alright
You try to make trouble here for me
White horses are hunting for you
And there's nothing you can do
So why you wanna spoil my fun?
Try to let go, yeah I know
We're in a whirlpool uh-oh
Spinning faster in a river so slow
I'm gonna lose it it's true
Getting faster in a river so blue
So put your hand on your heart
And you'll get into the rhythm I know
It's a whirlpool uh-oh
Spinning faster in a river so slow
What's the matter Charly with you?
You feel alive don't ya?
Charly what's the matter with you?
I got a feeling that you're gonna come through
Hold on to your tongue, call a truce
I'll give you something to chew
Finger on the pulse i'm spinning to
Uncharted waters with you
Feeling the warmth of the sun
Feeling the warmth of the sun
You can stay with me come on
Why you wanna spoil my fun?
Try to let go I know
It's a whirlpool uh-oh
Spinning faster in a river so slow
We're gonna lose it it's true
Spinning faster in a river so blue
So put your hand on your heart
And you'll get into the rhythm I know
It's a whirlpool uh-oh
Getting faster in a river so slow
We're gonna lose it it's true
Spinning faster in a river so blue
So put your hand on your heart
And you'll get into the rhythm I know
Charly what's the matter with you?
I gotta a feeling that you're gonna come
Yeah that you're gonna come through
