lyrics

Watch the sun break on the wide
lake, where the white bird is
washing its feathers
Watch the waves roll over the grey
stones, where your feet search
the edges

There’s nothing to fear love
The current is strong
Out in the distance
The boatman calls

Come on, come on, come on,
come on, come on pretty maidens
Let down, let down, let down
let down, let down your hair
Undo, undo, undo, undo, undo
the ribbons.
Let go, let go of the shore.

Feel the soft wind on your bare
skin, before you break through
the surface
And the waves part and the weeds
slide as the swell lifts you onwards

There’s nothing to fear love
The current is strong
Out in the distance
The boatman calls

Come on, come on, come on,
come on, come on pretty maidens
Let down, let down, let down
let down, let down your hair
Undo, undo, undo, undo, undo
the ribbons.
Let go, let go of the shore.
