Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
One by one you lit your matches and you threw them in the pool Now I'm no Norman Einstein but at least I'm not a fool They say that winter's coming, and it chills me to the bone I'd like to take you with me but I've got to go alone I would mend it but it's broken I'd steal it but it's stolen Are you going where I'm going? I'm not drowning, I'm just waving hello Now I don't know what I'm doing but I try to do it well You called in all your experts but as far as I can tell You say, "Yes it do" And I say, "Oh no it don't" I won't listen to your reason so it's time for me to go I dug out a well for you just to pipe the waters home to you But at the end of every day all I ever hear you say Is that my water made your clothes turn gray Well then follow me down to the river And as we float in the currents together Your shirt will smell like roses As you peel it from your skin So let me say Amen And let me begin To learn how to swim, to learn how to swim I would mend it but it's broken I'd steal it but it's stolen Are you going where I'm going? I'm not drowning, I'm just waving hello I dug out a well for you just to pipe the waters home to you But at the end of every day all I ever hear you say Is that my water made your clothes turn gray Well then follow me down to the river And as we float in the currents together Your shirt will smell like roses As you peel it from your skin So let me say Amen And let me begin To learn how to swim, to learn how to swim
