Oh the wind was picking up
Around the trees standing in teams
Huddled holding onto their unified beliefs
In the whirls I’d hear them calling
Asking me to leave
But I couldn’t leave
At the stream outside my bestfriends house
I had heard the stories about the people
Come to go away with the waters fury
And I thought that I could be cleaned
By standing at the edge
But I just had to get in,
Had to feel it on my skin
But I heard the current say
There are things that you can’t wash away
There are things that you can’t wash away
There are things that you can’t wash away
In the whirls I’d hear them calling
Asking me to leave
Come sway, come sway with me
In the whirls I’d hear them calling
Asking me to leave
Come sway, come sway with me
Come sway I’ll set you free
Come sway, come sway with me
Come sway I’ll set you free
I’ll set you free
But I heard the current say
There are things that you can’t wash away
There are things that you can’t wash away
There are things that you can’t wash away
