[00:00.00]The Water Is Over My Head - Eddie Hodges
[00:08.55]Well I walked to the river
[00:10.40]Just to ease my troublin' mind
[00:13.63]
[00:16.27]And I thought about leavin'
[00:18.25]This cardboard world behind
[00:21.45]
[00:24.38]My paperdoll princess has just blown out on the door
[00:28.27]Leavin' nothing more than me
[00:31.34]
[00:32.13]And now the water is over my head
[00:35.81]And I keep on sinkin' like my soul was lead
[00:39.60]And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack
[00:43.42]But I'm in too deep and there ain't
[00:46.38]
[00:48.50]No turnin' back
[00:50.22]
[00:51.28]No no no turnin' back
[00:54.24]
[00:55.28]No no no
[00:56.48]
[00:57.20]Ah the breeze in the trees just
[00:59.65]Whisperin' Louise today
[01:02.28]
[01:02.85]Ohh no
[01:03.99]
[01:05.07]And you can take back your rib
[01:07.43]'Cause I'm really not made of clay
[01:09.99]
[01:13.38]My ice cream dreams have just melted in the night
[01:17.14]I'm not standing here to fight the tide
[01:20.29]
[01:21.15]And now the water is over my head
[01:24.71]And I keep on sinkin' like my soul was lead
[01:28.64]And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack
[01:32.38]But I'm in too deep and there ain't
[01:36.03]
[01:37.59]No turnin' back
[01:39.26]
[01:40.37]No no no turnin' back
[01:43.62]
[01:44.26]No no no
[01:45.27]
[01:46.56]Well everybody's tellin' me that
[01:48.85]This is wrong and that ain't right
[01:51.59]
[01:54.75]But that can't be
[01:56.02]Because I saw the sunshine last night
[01:59.14]
[02:02.53]My crystal ball is blazin' but there's nothing there to see
[02:06.04]Oh there's nothing left of me to see
[02:09.29]
[02:10.17]And now the water is over my head
[02:13.77]And I keep on sinkin' like my soul was lead
[02:17.58]And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack
[02:21.37]But I'm in too deep and there ain't
[02:24.91]
[02:26.53]No turnin' back
[02:27.96]
[02:29.17]No no no turnin' back
[02:32.29]
[02:33.17]No no no
[02:34.07]
[02:35.18]Turnin' back
[02:35.96]
[02:37.28]No no no
[02:38.33]
[02:39.11]Turnin' back
[02:40.37]
[02:41.11]No no no
[02:42.01]
[02:43.09]Turnin' back
[02:43.90]
[02:45.06]No no no
[02:45.87]
[02:46.91]Turnin' back
[02:48.00]
[02:48.72]No no no
