Lyrics

[00:04.98] Lady on the water
[00:06.82] Make me rich, make me poor
[00:09.58] Lay your flowers at my door
[00:12.67] Lady on the water
[00:14.44] Bring me branches, bring me twine
[00:16.87] Wrap my heart upon the vine
[00:19.52] With your wine dye my feathers
[00:22.20] As the cock crows giving time
[00:26.85] Awake, my lady on the water
[00:29.54] Share my bread and share my drink
[00:32.05] Pay no mind to what others think
[00:35.39] Lady on the water
[00:37.06] With this wind and to flame
[00:39.71] With your grapes and bottled rain
[00:42.27] Make your wine of my worship
[00:44.88] A divinely strange refrain
[00:49.63] Or make it rain
[00:53.01]
[01:04.81] My lady on the water
[01:06.78] Place your thumb upon my tongue
[01:09.28] Be the song no one has sung
[01:12.44] Lady on the water
[01:14.06] With your jacket blue and strange
[01:16.64] Change these rivers in my veins
[01:19.26] Into wine, learning, burning
[01:21.75] Driven deep into this maze
[01:26.33] All of my days
[01:29.82]
[01:42.68] My lady on the water
[01:44.68] Lead me from the wilderness
[01:47.11] To countless deserts, dreams, and jests
[01:50.38] Lady on the water
[01:52.07] Rest my head upon your chest
[01:54.76] Leave me only when I' m blessed
[01:57.19] Cause I' ll be in my own country
[01:59.75] Good and dead and gone to rest
[02:04.70] That' s the way that' s the best
[02:07.76]
