Gently We Row by Melissa Etheridge
Gently We Row lyrics
My soul crashed into my body
Falling into consciousness
That�s when my mind became this illusion
Taking it step after step
I looked into mother�s eyes
I said tell me what I should believe
She drew me a room with a light
Said just turn it off when you leave
Slow, slow, this river is slow
We�re all out here on our own
Row, row, gently we row
One day we'll find our way home
Step after step
They draw me a town
They draw me a fear avenue
They draw me a God
They draw me some money
Hiding the truth far from you
I asked the cool fire light
Tell me what I should believe
They gave a song and they gave a dance
Said sleep now your pain will relieved
Slow, slow this river is slow
We�re all out here on our own
Row, row, gently we row
One day we�ll find our way home
I stumbled across, I begged to know why
I�ve been shamed
I�ve chosen to lie
All of this darkness, I have searched for a light
To come and find you
And when I found me
I wrapped my arms around my own daughter
She fell into her place and time
There is a mind, creates her illusion
I won�t complicate her with mine
She looked into her mother�s eyes
She said tell me what I should believe
And I drew her a door, and I drew her a key
And I said when you are ready, you come and find me
And we walk out of here
Tomorrow will be a new day
Slow, slow this river is slow
You are never out here on your own
Row, row, gently we row
And together we�ll find our way home
Slow, slow this river is slow
Life is not what it seems
Row, row, gently we row
Truth is only a dream
