| Got a whole lot of years
|
| And a whole lot of pain
|
| And it all got me here
|
| Where the river meets the clay
|
| Rewindin' through my past
|
| Tryin to find some good
|
| But I can’t seem to see
|
| What mama always could
|
| And that sun is shinin' down
|
| On all my darker days
|
| They’re comin' to me now
|
| As I hear the preacher say
|
| In the name of the Son and the Father
|
| Can I really leave it all
|
| In three feet of water?
|
| I can’t unbreak the laws
|
| Straighten out the rules I’ve bent
|
| Take the broken dreams and hearts
|
| Make 'em all whole again
|
| I been carryin' around
|
| All the messes that I’ve made
|
| But a few more steps from now
|
| They’ll all be washed away
|
| And that sun is shinin' down
|
| On all my darker days
|
| They’re comin' to me now
|
| As I hear the preacher say
|
| In the name of the Son and the Father
|
| Who’d’ve thought I could leave it all
|
| In three feet of water
|
| Washin' over me
|
| Amazing Grace the choir sings
|
| And now I know what mercy’s all about
|
| And that sun is shinin' down
|
| And all my darker days
|
| They’re nowhere to be found
|
| All that preacher had to say
|
| Was in the name of the Son and the Father
|
| Who’d’ve thought I could leave it all?
|
| You took my cross so I could leave it all
|
| In three feet of water
|
| Mmm, in three feet of water
|
| Mmm
|
| So, it’s that simple, huh? |
