daniel amos - the pool (1990) lyrics

Loading...

[intro – spoken]
the pool is very deep and cool
and nothing here is hard to do
nothing that should trouble you

[verse 1]
shrouded forms that start and sigh
as they p-ss this wanderer by
lakes that endlessly outspread
foaming blanket river beds

[chorus]
i stand
stand by the water, knee deep
deep in the fountain, now down
i go under, then rise up
rise up forever

[verse 2]
the waves that mount and tumble high
i meet the melancholy sky
and all i have i count for loss
there in the clouds, one single cross

[chorus]
i stand
stand by the water, knee deep
deep in the fountain, now down
i go under, then rise up
rise up forever

[bridge – spoken]
yes, deeply i have slept
and now i rise as one who has gone down
into the well springs of new life
down across the milk-white sands
i wade out into the sleepy cove
and bathe in the holy stream
then suddenly
i shatter the level mirror of the lake

[chorus]
i go under, then rise up
rise up forever

[verse 3]
upon an everlasting tide
into the silent pool i glide
i plunge to wash this black heart clean
and rise a swan upon the wing

[chorus]
i stand
stand by the water, knee deep
deep in the fountain, now down
i go under, then rise up
rise up forever, now down
i go under, then rise up
rise up forever, now down
i go under, then rise up
rise up forever, now down
i go under, then rise up
rise up forever, now down
i go under, then rise up
rise up forever
