Undertow — текст песни (Suzanne Vega)

I believe right now if I could

I would swallow you whole

I would leave only bones and teeth

We could see what was underneath

And you would be free then



Once I thought only tears could make us free

Salt wearing down to the bone

Like sand against the stone

Against the shoreline



I am friend to the undertow

I take you in, I dont let go

And now I have you



I wanted to learn all the secrets

From the edge of a knife

From the point of a needle

From a diamond

From a bullet in flight

I would be free then



I am friend to the undertow

I take you in, I dont let go

And now I have you



I wanted to see how it would feel

To be that sleek

And instead I find this hungers

Made me week



I believe right now if I could

I would swallow you whole

I would leave only bones and teeth

We could see what was underneath

And you would be free then



I am friend to the undertow

I take you in, I dont let go

And now I have you



I am friend to the undertow

I take you in, I dont let go

And now I have you
