03 Walk on Water.

Michael Blake / Breathe

LYRICS

Who can lay my body down,

Who can raise me from this ground.

Here beneath these broken skies,

Here among the endless warring tribes.

 

I see the dark skies gathering,

I feel the trade winds blowing strong.

The dessert sands are shifting,

The polar caps are growing thin.

 

Chorus

 

And yes I try to walk on water,

To keep my head above the raging sea.

And yes this body’s growing weaker,

The man inside me just a fading dream.

 

I hear you calling on the distant breeze,

A voice I heard a thousand years ago.

This soul of mine is drawing me in,

Whispering  for my spirit to be free.

 

chorus

 

 Here among these deep deep waters,

Turbulent seas of darkened dreams.

In Neptune’s heart the serpent is stirring.

The will is frozen in its spleen.

 

Who will give this man some comfort

Give him hope so he may dream

Who will open all these flood gates now

So he may swim the Seven seas.

 

Chorus

 

Who can lay my body down,

Who can raise me from this ground.

Here beneath these broken skies,

Here among the endless warring tribes.

 

Chorus
