[Verse 1] For the shore as the night is slipping through my hands I fall into the sea like the empire built on the sand I’ve been thinking ’bout the days when we had no money That photograph of you, well it still seems funny Gotta get back to the promised land [Chorus 1] So don’t walk away love There’s never enough that could make me crash on the broken gla** Let the storm rage, I’d die on the waves But I will not rest while love lies dead in the water Dead in the water In the water Dead in the water [Verse 2] I’m waiting for the calm as the storm is getting under my skin I’m trying to fix the hole in my head where the rain gets in It’s dripping in my ear, and it don’t sound funny I’m gonna take you out when I get some money
We’re trying to get it back to the promised land [Chorus 1] So don’t walk away love There’s never enough that could make me crash on the broken gla** Let the storm rage, I’d die on the waves But I will not rest while love lies dead in the water Dead in the water In the water Dead in the water [Chorus 2] So don’t walk away love There’s never enough that could make me crash on the broken gla** Let the storm rage, I’d die on the waves But I will not rest while love lies dead in the water There’s never enough that could make me crash on the broken gla** Let the storm rage, I’d die on the waves But I will not rest while love lies dead in the water Dead in the water In the water Dead in the water
