Agua

The Manhattan Transfer · Other Songs - The Manhattan Transfer

Here beneath the desert moon tonight

So pale and fragile

Is that shining in the distance I see

Real or just imagined?

Imagined mirages of Agua



Somewhere in these sands that spread before me

There lies a silent spring for me

Que Agua



The Earth without the Heavens' rain

Becomes powder and gravel

Life without a spirit

Whole in time becomes a thread unraveled

Or traveled in the circles of Agua



And lately there grows a thirst inside me

With only hunger to guide me

Que Agua



Agua ever deep, Agua ever wide

Agua ever still and silent

Flowing into sleep finding what we hide

Dreaming what cannot be sighted



Agua ever warm, current ever strong

Agua ever, everlasting

Gathering in storm, pouring out in song

Washing over understanding



Agua, Agua deep, Agua so wide

Carry me to your shore

Carry me Agua



Agua, Agua deep, Agua so wide

Carry me to your shore

Carry me Agua



Agua, Agua deep, Agua so wide

Carry me to your shore

Carry me Agua



Agua, Agua deep, Agua so wide

Carry me to your shore

Carry me Agua
