Diane Schuur - Rock Me on the Water lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh, people look around you The signs are everywhere You'd love it for somebody other than you To be the one to care You're lost inside your houses There's no time to find you now While your walls are burning and your towers are turning I'm gonna leave your here and try to get back to the sea somehow The road is filled homeless souls Every woman, child and man who have no idea where they will go, but they'll help you if they can But everyone must some thought that's gonna pull them through somehow [Pre-Chorus 1] While the fires are reaching hotter and hotter But the sisters of the sun are gonna rock me on the water now [Hook] Rock me on the water, sister will you soothe my fever now Rock me on the water, I'll get back to the sea somehow [Verse 2] Old people look among you It's there your hope must lie There's a seabird gliding above you in one place, like Jesus in the sky We all must do the best we can and then hang on to that gospel plow [Pre-Chorus 2] When my life is over and I'm standing before the Father and the sisters of the sun are gonna rock me on the water now [Hook] Rock me on the water, sister will you soothe my fever now Rock me on the water, maybe I'll remember, maybe I'll remember now Rock me on the water, the wind is with me now Rock me on the water, I'll get back to the sea somehow [Hook] Rock me on the water, rock me now Rock me on the water, I'll get back to the sea, I'll get back to the sea somehow [Hook] Rock me on the water, rock me now Rock me on the water, rock me now Rock me on the water, I'll get back to the sea, I'll get back to the sea somehow Rock me on the water, rock me now
