Wash my love
Wash my love
[Verse 2]
Sin for sale, buying just a need
Oh, who planted all the devils seeds?

Bring it back someday
Bring it back, bring it back, back to, to the clean form, to the pure form
[Chorus]
Wash my love
Wash my love
Wash my love
Wash my love
Wash my love
Wash my love
Wash my love
Wash my love
