Lyrics

I see you... in a velvet robe
I feel you... from across the wave
I hear you... calling me

Deep waters... calling men. calling women
And calling children
Deep waters... calling men. calling women
Calling. calling!

My people! now hear the news:
No more room when the ark is full
And it seems like every path leads down to nowhere (well, what can I say?)
From now on no easy way
And for some of us there ain't no way at all
'Tis like a midsummer night's dream

Deep waters... calling men. calling women
And calling children
Deep waters... calling men. calling women
Calling. calling!

Drifting... now you've set yourself a-drifting..
Towards the sea..
Drifting... with the stream of consciousness now drifting..
Towards the sea..
Drifting... drifting... like a long and silent river you are..
You are... you are a-drifting
Drifting! drifting!
For life's too long and life's too short and you are a-drifting..
You're drifting away - you've set yourself astray..
