John Mark McMillan - Carolina Tide lyrics
[John Mark McMillan - Carolina Tide lyrics]
Wash our hands in the Carolina tide
Let's go down and die
And come back like babies
Hey girl, let's go down
Wash our sins in the muddy brown wave
Wash the world away and come back again
Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
All these scarlet stains like
The blood red clay on the knees of our jeans
You can come out righteous if you want babe
You can come out clean
Hey girl, drive all night
Down to the water and live like we're alive
Let our sleeping die
And roll out of these graves
Hey girl, the water don't know
The shore don't care who you were before
We're not them anymore
You know we're not the same
Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
All these scarlet stains like
The blood red clay on the knees of our jeans
You can come out righteous if you want babe
You can come out clean
Hey girl, let's go down
Wash our hands in the Carolina tide
Let's go down and die
And come back like babies
Hey girl, let's go down
Wash our sins in the muddy brown wave
Wash the world away and come back again
