Spirit on the water

LETRA

Spirit on the water

Spirit on the water
Darkness on the face of the deep
I keep thinking about you baby
I can hardly sleep

I´m traveling by land
Traveling through the dawn of day
You´re always on my mind
I can´t stay away

I had forgotten about you
Then you turned up again
I always knew
We were meant to be more than friends

When you´re near
It´s just as plain as it can be
I´m wild about you, girl
You ought to be a fool about me

Can´t explain
The sources of this hidden pain
You burned your way into my heart
You got the key to my brain

I´ve been trampling through mud
Praying to the powers above
I´m sweating blood
You got a face that begs for love

Life without you
Doesn´t mean a thing to me
If I can´t have you
I´ll throw my love into the deep blue sea

Sometimes I wonder
Why you can´t treat me right
You do good all day
And then you do wrong all night

When you´re with me
I´m a thousand times happier than I could ever say
What does it matter
What price I pay?

They brag about your sugar
Brag about it all over town
Put some sugar in my bowl
I feel like laying down

I´m as pale as a ghost
Holding a blossom on a stem
You ever seen a ghost?
No, but you have heard of them

I see you there
I´m blinded by the colors I see
I´ll take good care
Of what belongs to me

I hear your name
Ringing up and down the line
I´m saying it plain
These ties are strong enough to bind

Now your sweet voice
Calls out from some old familiar shrine
I´ve got no choice
Can´t believe these things would ever fade from your mind

I could live forever
With you perfectly
You don´t ever
Have to make a fuss over me

>From East to West
Ever since the world began
I only mean it for the best
I want to be with you in any way that I can

I´ve been in a brawl
Now I´m feeling the wall
I´m going away baby
I won´t be back until fall

High on the hill
You can carry all my thoughts with you
You´ve numbed my will
This love could tear me in two

I want be with you in paradise
And it seems so unfair
I can´t go to paradise no more
I killed a man back there

You think I´m over the hill
You think I´m past my prime
Let me see what you got
We can have a whopping good time
