Lyrics

If all the world could take a moment
To cradle back into slow motion 'cos it's all moving too fast
You had your shot you took your chances
All through you'd battle for the answers you were brave 'til the very last

Just like a wave on the ocean
There's forces that run so deep
I'm falling into the temptation
To let it wash all over me
Come and wash me clea-ea ea- ea- ean
Come and wash me clean a nervous step into the future
While the present shatters all around you
It's all moving too fast
And now the footprints of your failures
Seep into the safety of the harbour
Leave it all in a dark past

Just like a wave on the ocean
There's forces that run so deep
I'm falling into the temptation
To let it wash all over me
Come and wash me clea-ea ea- ea- ean
Come and wash me clean
Come and wash me clean
