Ken Jameson: my music

Take Me To The Water

(Ken Jameson)
I roam the city streets at night
Looking for my purpose, I’m looking for some light
I feel the cold moon deep in my bones
And I don’t remember what the sun feels like

I’m looking for my savior, but the pages of my bible are all blank
I need you to be my angel, and to sweeten the bitter poison that I drank


Take me to the water and wash away my sorrows
Take me to the water and wipe the sleep from my eyes
Take me to the water and bathe me in your tenderness
Take me to the water and give me life


I go to sleep when the sun comes up
And I don’t wake again until the moon is high up in the sky
I feel so empty when I sleep alone
My dreams are troubled and my bed feels like its ten miles wide

Won’t you let me inside?
Won’t you show me the light?


Take me to the water and wash away my sorrows
Take me to the water and wipe the sleep from my eyes
Take me to the water and bathe me in your tenderness
Take me to the water and give me life
Give me life
Won’t you give me life?
