Cold Water

Feet are tired like heavy stones

For a heart that grows so slow

Do the things that make me strong

In cold water i will plunge

And oh it moves so slow, oh it moves so slow

Precious time out on my own

(beware of the one that strays too long)

Shake this restless from my bones

(got too used to being alone)

How long is too long?

(mind your step and where you go)

But it's clearer on my own

(there are currents don't you know)

Cos i hate to be, wrapped in cotton oh i think it's bad for me

(you should see the trouble you have caused for me)

Yes i see there's trouble but it's proven to me

I'm better off that way

Black river licked my ears again

Muffled sounds is where i'll find my friends

Black river take me there today

Been a while since i let you carry me in this way

And oh it moves so slow, and oh it moves so slow
