Lyrics
Waterloo
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.
In the undertow
Of a muddy river's ebb and flow
Is a hand that will not let go
The current is strong
The river is deep
In the afterglow
Of the fire that tore trough the room below
Someone calls through the smoke
All you can do is try to breathe
To breathe
To breathe
To breathe
When the road is steep
And the ground gives way beneath your feet
It's the last place you want to be
The air here is thin
You must try to breathe
To breathe
To breathe
To breathe
In the undertow
Of a muddy river's ebb and flow
Is a hand that will not let you go
That belongs to someone like me
Who's holding your head and helping you breathe
to breathe
to breathe
to breathe
You need to be free
You need to be free
