[Verse 1] Spirit on the water Darkness on the face of the deep I keep thinking about you baby I can't hardly sleep [Verse 2] I'm traveling by land Traveling through the dawn of day You're always on my mind I can't stay away [Verse 3] I'd forgotten about you Then you turned up again I always knew That we were meant to be more than friends [Verse 4] When you are near It's just as plain as it can be I'm wild about you, gal You ought to be a fool about me [Verse 5] Can't explain The sources of this hidden pain You burned your way into my heart You got the key to my brain [Verse 6] I've been trampling through mud Praying to the powers above I'm sweating blood You got a face that begs for love [Verse 7] 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 [Verse 8] Sometimes I wonder Why you can't treat me right You do good all day Then you do wrong all night [Verse 9] When you're with me I'm a thousand times happier than I could ever say What does it matter What price I pay [Verse 10] They brag about your sugar Brag about it all over town Put some sugar in my bowl I feel like laying down [Verse 11] I'm pale as a ghost Holding a blossom on a stem You ever seen a ghost? No But you have heard of them [Verse 12] I see you there I'm blinded by the colors I see I take good care Of what belongs to me [Verse 13] I hear your name Ringing up and down the line I'm saying it plain These ties are strong enough to bind [Verse 14] Your sweet voice Calls out from some old familiar shrine I got no choice Can't believe these things would ever fade from your mind [Verse 15] I could live forever With you perfectly You don't ever Have to make a fuss over me [Verse 16] From East to West Ever since the world began I only mean it for the best I want to be with you any way I can [Verse 17] I been in a brawl Now I'm feeling the wall I'm going away baby I won't be back ‘till fall [Verse 18] High on the hill You can carry all my thoughts with you You've numbed my will This love could tear me in two [Verse 19] I wanna be with you in paradise And it seems so unfair I can't go to paradise no more I k**ed a man back there [Verse 20] You think I'm over the hill You think I'm past my prime Let me see what you got We can have a whoppin' good time
