To the Water

To the Water - Matt Simons Lyrics

I walked into the bedroom on a rainy afternoon

And I heard her say to me “Not a moment too soon”

She said child don't you worry

I will always be with you

From the way she'd looked at me

I believed it to be true when she said, when she said

I'm ready to close my eyes

Steady and hold tight

I'm gonna be crossing over to heaven and the great divide

And I I'm ready to close my eyes

Heavy and so wide

I can feel it pull me under steady as the rising tide

Take me to the water by the road that leads you down

And lay me down

It was early in the evening

She gave all that she could give

And I felt her leaving me

But I learn how to live when she said

When she said

I'm ready to close my eyes

Steady and hold tight

I'm gonna be crossing over to heaven and the great divide

And I, I'm ready to close my eye

Heavy and so wide

I can feel it pull me under steady as the rising tide

Take me to the water by the road that leads you down

And lay me down

Lay me down

I'm ready to close my eyes

Steady and hold tight

I'm gonna be crossing over to heaven and the great divide

And I, I'm ready to close my eyes

Heavy and so wide

I can feel it pull me under steady as the rising tide

Take me to the water by the road that leads you down

Take me to the water scatter me around

Take me to the water by the road that leads you down

Take me to the water scatter me around

Take me to the water by the road that leads you down

And lay me down

Lay me down
