david olney - deeper well lyrics

Loading...

well, the sun burned hot, it burned my eyes
burned so hot i thought i’d died
thought i’d died and gone to h-ll
looking for the water from a deeper well

well, i went to the river but the river was dry
i fell to my knees and i looked to the sky
looked to the sky and the spring rain fell
i drank the water from a deeper well
well, well, well, well
i drank the water from a deeper well, alright

well, i fell in love like a baby child
i fell for a touch and i fell for a smile
smile turned bitter and her touch turned cold
i could not keep what i could not hold

so, i ran with the moon and i ran with the night
and the three of us made a terrible sight
wh-r-d and we gambled with the money we’d steal
looking for the water from a deeper well
well, well, well, well
looking for the water from a deeper well

well, the moon got weak and he soon was gone
and the night got sick and he died with the dawn
died with the dawn with a drink in his hand
too sick to walk, too drunk to stand

well, time stood still but i ran wild
and i got my fill with a crooked smile
woke up on the floor of a jailhouse cell
looking for the water from a deeper well
well, well, well, well
i drank the water from a deeper well

well, the sun burned hot, it burned my eyes
burned so hot i thought i’d died
thought i’d died and gone to h-ll
looking for the water from a deeper well

well, i went to the river but the river was dry
and i fell to my knees and i looked to the sky
looked to the sky and the spring rain fell
i drank the water from a deeper well
well, well, well, well
i drank the water from a deeper well
