Buddy Miller

Water When the Well Is Dry
Down on the corner of the dead end streetToo many tears and not a drop of reliefIt'll shake up your soul it'll tear down your prideHoney keep your eyes pure let us tell no liesHatred is a criminal out on the looseLove might be a judge with a hangman's nooseIt'll make you strong it'll make you bitterI got to find myself a strong delivererI need a drink of something like waterI need a taste of love divineSometimes you just gotta do what you oughtaSometimes you bring up the water when the well is dryGone out walking through the city tonightSittin' through the wreckage underneath the lightsAll you can do is pray with all your mightThere's a few thousand souls no where in sightIt's hard to swing at something you can't seeSometimes we just don't know the enemyCan't live by fear can't live by deceptionHey I'm a man of peace with a few exceptionsI need a drink of something like waterI need a taste of love divineSongtexteSometimes you just gotta do what you oughtaSometimes you bring up the water when the well is dryWhen the world starts shakingAnd the walls are breaking down till nothing's leftBaby you're gonna need to hold onto something that isStronger than yourselfBaby your eyes were wet with tearsYour skin was drenched in sorrowBut you kiss was an open doorSo I walked through to a new tomorrowHoney like a blade of finest steelYea like an arrow straight and trueLike gold in the hottest fireBaby that is my love my love for youI need a drink of something like waterI need a taste of love divineSometimes you just gotta do what you oughtaSometimes you bring up the water when the well is dry Aus Songtexte Mania
