The Cains - Down To The Water lyrics

rate me

Ooooo you loved a liar

Tightrope walking on a thin wire

Ooooo you loved a stranger

My deception was a game changer

I'm sorry for what I've done to you

I'm sorry

Take me down to the water

Wash my stains in the river

These hands were not made to carry sins

Oh my past it does a'haunt me

But shame can't live where love has brought me

Tear the page out of your book

And write again

Oooo I'd give me money

Just to pay off all the demons honey

You made me your hero

I fell from grace and had nowhere to go but

Down to the water

Wash my stains in the river

These hands were not made to carry sins

Oh my past it does a'haunt me

But shame can't live where love has brought me

Tear the page out of your book

And write again

I've got a bag of rocks and I will take them to the Jordan

Leave them to remind me that the debt has been repaid

I've got the lock and key that will free me from these burdens

And carry not these heavy chains with me to the grave

And I'm sorry for what I've done to you

So take me down to the water

Wash my stains in the river

These hands were not made to carry sins

Oh my past it does a'haunt me

But shame can't live where love has brought me

Tear the page out of your book

And write again<br />
