lyrics

Take me down to the water’s edge where my feet won’t go any more
Take me down to the water’s edge where the stars are on the floor
Take me down to the water’s edge at the end of the land
Take me down to the water’s edge, leave me strung out on the strand

Take me down to the silver shore where the horses run free
Take me down to the silver shore where the fishes come to breathe
Take me down to the silver shore where the night never falls
Take me down to the silver shore where the ghostly songbird calls

Take me down to the water’s edge where the sun sets like lead
Take me down to water’s edge let me stay there till you’re dead

Take me down to the border line where the madness always starts
Take me down to the border line where the water cannot pass
Take me down to the border line where the land of nod begins
Take me down to the border line for absolution from my sins

Take me down to the water’s edge …
