Song lyrics Water's edge by Cyndi Lauper

I went to the waterŽs edge, forgot I couldnŽt swim
I went to the waterŽs edge, all ready to jump in
I saw the water shimmer
I heard the wind howl
I saw my own reflection
I just canŽt see it now

You say itŽs the way of the world
To somehow co-exists
That eventually life unfurls
A path to happiness

So I whisper your little secret
And repeat it under my breath
IŽll save it for you in my heart
In case we both forget

Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I am gripped by a loneliness
Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
IŽd be released in your tenderness
IŽd be released in your tenderness

I went to the waterŽs edge and saw my life eclipse
I went to the waterŽs edge and then felt myself slip
I dreamed that I was floating, just coast until I grew fins
I want to catch this tide back home and feel you again

Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I am gripped by a loneliness
Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
IŽd be released in your tenderness
Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I am gripped by a loneliness
Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
IŽd be released in your tenderness
IŽd be released in your tenderness
IŽd be released in your tenderness
