Deep Water |
| Green-eyed looker, it always pains me to see |
| Hollowed out picture of skin and bone |
| The strangest stranger that I ever did meet |
| Oh and I guess I ain’t that old |
| She came on strong with her own confidence |
| Made you sweat in your cotton, though it’ll breathe |
| The cruelest behaviour ain’t born or mined |
| Feel her shell should just go and down the wine |
| It’s deep water, driving rain |
| And all I can remember is a cold |
| Another burned out lover who was begging to leave |
| She said «why wouldn’t you tie your soul to me?» |
| Took all I had in my waiting cell |
| And a little of what I just don’t know |
| But I got my thinking up to where I fell |
| And I let the memories of my lovers die |
| It’s a bitter taste and a, a blinding light |
| Time fade burns, most would know |
| Took the hand of the, the woman I love |
| Now I am sure I’m gonna make her my own |
| It’s the deep water, the driving rain |
| I’m making a shelter of my own |
| When Jesus comes he’s gonna eat with me |
| And he’s gonna find our children old |
| Got a road all laid out and trenched |
| And mined enough for a walking pace |
| It seems so different from where I’ve come |
| Oh Lord I’d love to see that, that place again |
| With its deep water, mountain range |
| Full of those hard living kind |
| Petrol stations and a copper mine |
| The kind of place I think I could die |
