Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was a drought and you were the sea
Would you have to cover me?
I had my doubts so I laid in the reeds
You would have to cover me
You would have to cover me
[Verse 2]
Came up from the south 'cause he wanted to see
You would have to suffer me
It seems worse now and you can't hardly read
You would have to suffer me
You would have to suffer me
[Instrumental]
Can't believe now 'cause they won't let you be
And is there any love for me?
You seem to crowd and you bend at the knees
Is there any love for me?
Is there any love for me?
Is there any love for me?
[Instrumental]
Came in the house and they won't let you sleep
You would have to cover me
But you think you know how and you can't find the key
You would have to cover me
You would have to cover me
You would have to cover me
You would have to cover me
