I had a dream last night
Where you came into my arms
And I held you so tight
The sky was black and in the streets
I watched a thousand babies burn
How can I get myself, get myself clean?
I watched a thousand babies burn
How can I get myself, get myself clean?
It's gonna take a million waterfalls
To wash away the sin
The sun went black and for its kiss
I nailed a thousand silver nails
Into my saviour's wrists
And he said, "Girl, see what I mean?
It's gonna take a million waterfalls
To wash yourself, wash yourself clean"
I watched these thousand babies burn
And in the midst of my, midst of my dream
I watched these thousand babies burn
Baby, burn, baby, burn
Clean
I watched these thousand babies burn
Baby, burn, baby, burn
[Interlude]
The sun went black and for its kiss
I nailed a thousand silver nails
Into my saviour's wrists
And he said, "Girl, see what I mean?
It's gonna take a million waterfalls
To wash yourself, wash yourself clean"
I watched these thousand babies burn
And in the midst of my, midst of my dream
I watched these thousand babies burn
Baby, burn, baby, burn
Clean
I watched these thousand babies burn
Baby, burn, baby, burn
