Rusted Pipe Lyrics

Suzanne Vega/Suzanne Vega & Anton Sanko
 
 Now the time has come to speak
 I was not able
 And water through a rusted pipe
 Could make the sense that I do
 
 Gurgle, mutter
 Hiss, stutter
 Moan the words like water
 Rush and foam and choke
 
 Having waited
 This long of a winter
 I fear I only
 Croak and sigh
 
 Somewhere deep within
 Hear the creak
 That lets the tale begin
 
 Now the time has come to move
 I was not able
 Water through a rusted pipe
 Could make the moves that I do
 
 Stagger, stumble
 Trip, fumble
 I fear I only
 Slip and slide
 
 Somewhere deep within
 Hear the creak
 That lets the tale begin
 
 Somewhere deep within
 Hear the creak
 That lets the tale begin
