deep water - the middle east lyrics
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 confidence
make you sweat in your cotton, though it’ll breathe
and the cruelest behavior ain’t born or mined—
to fill her sh-ll she’ll 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 tell 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 blinding light
and time fade burns, most would know
i took the hand of the woman i love
now i am sure i’m gonna make her my own
it’s a deep water, a 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 hope
got a road all laid out and trenched
and mindenough for a walking pace
it seems a difference from where i’ve come
and oh lord i’d love to see that place again
with its deep water, mountain range
and full of those hard-living kind
petrol stations and a copper mine—
the kind of place i think i could die
