Water On Snow Lyrics - Colin Vearncombe

(Water On Snow) 

Did I sleep? Do I dream of cold, silent water 

So deep and dark 

And the wires are singing our song? 

Our song 

As we lay back and stared into cloudless skies 

And the stars up there 

The wires are singing our song 

The wires are singing our song 

Your face, now so plain, once was so lovely 

A beautiful refrain, dust with stars 

But your smile now in disguise became a flat line 

And to never love again like you did before 

Was all 

Why go on with it, why go on with it? 

Why, to let it flow, like water on snow? 

I know what you want, what you are thinking 

To drift beyond the pain and out of reach 

To sit, be safe and warm inside your sorrow 

And listen to the slow, slow morse tapping of the rain 

But it says: 

Why go on with it? Why go on with it? 

Why to let it flow like water on snow?
