Let The Waters Rise Lyrics
let the waters rise
and wash the town into the sea
let the waters rise
and find my lover where she sleeps
cause i don't where she is or what company she keeps
all i know is where she should be
so let the waters the rise
and bring her home to me
let the waters rise
i'm too tired now for searchin'
let the waters rise
and hide the tears i've cried for that woman
cause it just isn't fair that she's out there havin' fun
when i'm stuck and havin' none
so let the waters rise
and bring me my only one
and i've been on my own
sittin' by my window
waitin' by the phone for you to call
and every time the wind blows
i hear the subtle tone
of your laughter echo through the hall
so let the waters rise
and set this lonesome heart adrift
let the waters rise
may they be cold and swift
and wash the town into the sea
let the waters rise
and find my lover where she sleeps
all i know is where she should be
so let the waters the rise
and bring her home to me
i'm too tired now for searchin'
let the waters rise
and hide the tears i've cried for that woman
when i'm stuck and havin' none
so let the waters rise
and bring me my only one
sittin' by my window
waitin' by the phone for you to call
and every time the wind blows
i hear the subtle tone
of your laughter echo through the hall
and set this lonesome heart adrift
let the waters rise
may they be cold and swift
