Rose on Water Lyrics
Take a walk through my life,
Through the broken glass, through the sands of time,
Take a look in my eyes,
You'll see a love that's blind
Your words don't mean much to me anymore,
Once they were all to a heart so pure,
Once they held dreams,
And they carried me away,
Like a rose on water
Like a rose on water,
Like a rose on water
Take a walk through my heart,
Where a rose should be there's a crown of thorns,
From the cry of a child,
There's a woman born
My touch doesn't mean that much to you anymore,
I'm reaching out for you but I can't be sure,
Am I slipping through your hands?
Or are you throwing me away?
Like a rose on water
Be my shelter from the rain,
Free the child again,
Whatcha gonna do when the rain comes down
and the petals fall?
Be my shelter from the rain,
Free the child again,
Be my shelter from the rain,
Free the child again.
Through the broken glass, through the sands of time,
Take a look in my eyes,
You'll see a love that's blind
Once they were all to a heart so pure,
Once they held dreams,
And they carried me away,
Like a rose on water
Like a rose on water
Where a rose should be there's a crown of thorns,
From the cry of a child,
There's a woman born
I'm reaching out for you but I can't be sure,
Am I slipping through your hands?
Or are you throwing me away?
Like a rose on water
Free the child again,
and the petals fall?
Free the child again,
Be my shelter from the rain,
Free the child again.

I love their voices - they sync so beautifully...
This song (surprisingly) reminds me of Morgana and what happens to her throughout the course of BBC's "Merlin" 4 years of airing. How she goes 'dark', but without losing her inherent characteristics: the desire to be loved, to be missed, to be understood. This song focusses on her more 'human' side. I'm an Arthur/Morgana shipper, btw, so this song reminds me of them. How they once were. How she yearns their relationship to be the way it used to be (S4 finale).
