Ripples Lyrics – Genesis

Ripples Lyrics by Genesis

Blue girls come in every size
Some are wise and some otherwise
They got pretty blue eyes
For an hour a man may change

For an hour her face looks strange
Looks strange, looks strange
Marching to the promised land
Where the honey flows and takes you by the hand

Pulls you down on your knees
While you’re down a pool appears
The face in the water looks up
And she shakes her head as if to say

That it’s the last time you’ll look like today
Sail away, away
Ripples never come back
Gone to the other side

Sail away, sail away
The face that launched a thousand ships
Is sinking fast, that happens you know
The water gets below

Seems not very long ago
Lovelier she was than any that I know
Angels never know it’s time
To close the book and gracefully decline

The song has found a tale
My, what a jealous pool she is
The face in the water looks up
She shakes her head as if to say

That the blue girls have all gone away
Sail away, away
Ripples never come back
They’ve gone to the other side

Look into the pool
Ripples never come back
Dive to the bottom and go to the top
To see where they have gone

Oh, they’ve gone to the other side
