Lyrics Marianne Faithfull

Marianne Faithfull

Deep Water

I'm walking trough deep water

It's all that I can do

I'm walking through deep water

Trying to get to you

Your face is hidden from me

But your love is not

I will not reach for other things

Till I know what I have got

I'm walking through deep water

Trying to get to you

I'm walking through deep water

I have no time to lose

I'm walking through deep water

There's nothing left to choose

This little heart of mine

Got loaded up with chains

The world just swirls around me

The water makes its claim

I'm walking through deep water

Trying to get to you

Who will calm my fears?

Who will drive my tears away?

Who will calm my fears?

Who will drive my tears away?

I'm walking through deep water

Nearer to the sea

I'm asking the deep water

Don't take my love from me

I'll dance with little ladies

With a hundred just like me

They hold their breath and hesitate

And dance beneath the sea

I'm walking through deep water

Trying to get to you
