Washing of the Water

"River, river carry me on
Living river carry me on
River, river carry me on
To the place where I come from"

(ponte da amizade - Margem do Paraguay, vista para o Brasil, Paraguay)

"So deep, so wide, will you take me on your back for a ride
If I should fall, would you swallow me deep inside"



(Cataratas do Iguaçu, Brasil)

"River, show me how to float
I feel like Im sinking down
Thought that I could get along
But here in this water
My feet wont touch the ground
I need something to turn myself around"


(miltenberg, Alemanha)

"Going away, away towards the sea
River deep, can you lift up and carry me
Oh roll on though the heartland
til the sun has left the sky
River, river carry me high
til the washing of the water make it all alright
Let your waters reach me like she reached me tonight"



(Serra da Estrela, Portugal)



"Letting go, its so hard
The way its hurting now
To get this love untied
So tough to stay with thing
cause if I follow through
I face what I denied
I get those hooks out of me
And I take out the hooks that I sunk deep in your side
Kill that fear of emptiness, loneliness I hide"




(Lagoa de santo André, Portugal)


"River, oh river, river running deep
Bring me something that will let me get to sleep
In the washing of the water will you take it all away
Bring me something to take this pain away"


Não deixa de ser interessante que tudo o que aqui tenho colocado ser notoriamente no mesmo tom... ou não.
seja como for, a letra da musica é uma boa desculpa para colocar as imagens...
Porquê a lagoa e não um rio no fim? todos os rios correm para o mar... mas é o mar que corre para esta lagoa...
