"Long Water" lyrics

"Long Water"
(from "The Flame In The Flood" soundtrack)

Long water, carry me
Long water, humble me
'Til I believe in the sea
Know that I'm free

Those rocks, wet with slaughter
Through the jaws, I have fought her
In the mist, the crushing cascades
Through the torrent, along the levee

Long water, carry me
Long water, humble me
'Til I believe in the sea
Know that I'm free

Though the braided channel meanders
Through wind pole blowed and timbers
Oh, I pray to reach the tail water
Oh, unscathed by the force of nature

Long water, carry me
Oh, long water, humble me
'Til I believe in the sea
Know that I'm free

Know
Know

Long water, summon me
Long water, humble me

'Til I believe
I believe
Unseen sea
Mm-mm
