Agua Lyrics - Singles - 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
