Song lyrics
She'd do anything to sparkle in his eyes
She would suffer, she would fight and compromise
She's been wishin' up the stars that shine so bright 
For answers to questions that will haunt her tonight

She must rinse
This all away
She can't hold him this way
She must rinse
This all away
She can't love him
This way

How she'd be soothed, how she'd be saved, if he could see
She needs to be held in his arms to be freed
But everything happens for reasons that she will never understand
Till she knows that the heart of a woman will never
Be found in the arms of a man

She must rinse
This all away
She can't hold anybody this way
She must rinse
This all away
She can't love him

And as she runs away, she fears she won't be followed
What could be worse than leaving something behind
And as the depth of oceans slowly become shallow
It's loneliness she finds
If only he was mine

She'd do anything to sparkle in his eyes
She would suffer, she would fight and compromise
She's been wishin' up the stars that shine so bright
For answers to questions that will haunt her tonight

She must rinse him
She must rinse him
She can't rinse him
She can't rinse him
She can't, she won't, she must rinse him
She can't, she won't, she must rinse him

She must rinse 
This all away
She can't hold him this way 
She must rinse
This all away
She can't love him
This way

Hey. I reallly like this song. Can anyone else play this on piano? I performed this song in the Omni Hotel in St. Louis, Missouri. They have a beautiful antique grand piano from the 1900's...the song just resonated out of the keys, and though I hadnt planned on singing, the words just came out. There's something magic about the moment when you connect with the music...and this song did it for me. I'll admit that because the words came from her mind, her experience, I don't understand them, but for some, me putting the words into tangible form with my performance...it might have left an impression to say the least. I'd like to personally thank anyone who has ever felt that 'musical connection'...

Dazzlingly Yours,
Princess Emily

This is a really great song. I wish I knew how to play this on the piano, or any of her songs, besides A Thousand Miles. I already know how to play that. Not by memory though...

Anyway, I really love this song. All of the songs on this CD is awesome. I haven't heard Harmonium yet. Must get it.
