I wonder if my ropeâs still hanging from the tree
By the standing pool where you drank me
And filled me full of thirsty love
And the memory of water?
I wonder if a king still fishes there
His back toward the burned out air
His laughing catches singing loud
Of the memory of water
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/m/marillion/memory+of+water_20088962.html ]
Your taste is blood and ecstasy
But I must drink you all alone
Youâre freckled like a speckled egg
A dove but this bird has flown
O stay with me sweet memory
O stay with me
I wonder if my ropeâs still hanging from the tree
By the standing pool where you drank me
As pain flows through me like champagne
Of the memory of water
