I had a dream last night
They 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
