Washes Away Songtext
von Trespassers William

I can laugh at this dream
And if I drown, I'll wake in the morning
This is liquid love in a plastic cup
And if it leaks, we can plug it right back up

Pain is a rain that washes away
I'm a fabric you can't stain
To make light of you is all that I have
So understand me if I laugh


You were sleeping
And your eyes they were gone for a while
You were screaming
And I searched for the lines of your smile
This is peace and I know 'cause I'm too tired to cry
I'll never get close to you and I'm just too distracted to try

Pain is a rain that washes away
I'm a fabric you can't stain
To fall into this is not what I want
So understand me if I don't

Love is a glove that just doesn't fit
No matter how you pull at it
To make light of you is all that I have
So understand me if i laugh


It is late, I won't ask you to stay or to stroke
I have never gotten warm from you huddling close
If you danced, I might take you right up in my arms
But you don't, so I whisper, this is all
This is all
All
