I breathe black water
From the bottom of the lake
Far away from my mother's beating heart
Oh how I rue my mistakes
Such a shame, such a waste, such a tragedy!
Did you know I'd always leave you?
And do you know I have regrets?
I know I said I'd always haunt you (in time)
But a fading ghost will forget
Such a shame, such a waste, such a tragedy!
Won't you lay her next to me
In the rushes and the reeds?
Lay her body next to me
Will you place her by my side
In the glimmering lake light?
Lay her body next to mine
I rest here in the darkness
Beyond the borders of the sun
Beyond the distant call of home
Beyond the beating of your drum
Such a shame, such a waste, such a tragedy!
Will you lay her next to me
In the rushes and the reeds?
Lay her body next to me
And will you place her by my side
In the glistening daylight?
Will you lay her by my side
Such a shame, such a waste, such a tragedy!
Such a shame, such a waste, such a tragedy!
Such a shame, such a waste, such a tragedy!
Such a shame, such a waste, such a tragedy!
