The Water Is Over My Head

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well I walked to the river just to ease my troublin' mind

And I thought about leavin' this cardboard world behind

My paperdoll princess has just blown out on the door

Leavin' nothing more than me.

And now the water is over my head

And I keep on sinkin' like my soul was lead

And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack

But I'm in too deep and there ain't no turnin' back...no, no, no...turnin' back...no, no, no

Ahh the breeze in the trees is a-whisperin' Louise today

And you can take back your rib 'cause I'm really not made of clay

My ice cream dreams have just melted in the night

I'm not standing here to fight the tide

And now the water is over my head

And I keep on sinkin' like my soul was lead (de chumbo)

And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack

But I'm in too deep and there ain't no turnin' back...no, no, no...turnin' back...no, no, no

Well, everybody's tellin' me that this is wrong and that ain't right

But that can't be because I saw the sun shine last night

My crystal ball is blazin' but there's nothing there to see

Oh there's nothing left of me to see

And now the water is over my head

And I keep on sinkin' like my soul was lead

And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack

But I'm in too deep and there ain't no turnin' back...no, no, no...turnin' back...no, no, no
