Ripples (2007 Digital Remaster) - Genesis
Bluegirls come in every size
Some are wise and some otherwise
They got pretty blue eyes
For an hour a man may change
For an hour her face looks strange -
Looks strange looks strange
Marching to the promised land
Where the honey flows and takes you by the hand
Pulls you down on your knees
While youre down a pool appears
The face in the water looks up
And she shakes her head as if to say
That its the last time youll look like today
Sail away away
Ripples never come back
Gone to the other side
Sail away away
The face that launched a thousand ships
Is sinking fast that happens you know
The water gets below
Seems not very long ago
Lovelier she was than any that I know
Angels never know its time
To close the book and gracefully decline
The song has found a tale
My what a jealous pool is she
The face in the water looks up
She shakes her head as if to say
That the bluegirls have all gone away
Sail away away
Ripples never come back
Theyve gone to the other side
Look into the pool
Ripples never come back
Dive to the bottom and go to the top
To see where they have gone
Oh theyve gone to the other side
Sail away away
Ripples never come back
Gone to the other side
Look into the pool
The ripples never come back come back
Dive to the bottom and go to the top
To see where they have gone
Theyve gone to the other side
Ripples never come back
Sail away away
Sail away away
