Bob Dylan – Spirit On The Water Lyrics  Share

From Bob Dylan's album: Modern Times

(Bob Dylan)

Spirit on the water
Darkness on the face of the deep
I keep thinking about you baby
I can^,t hardly sleep

I^,m traveling by land
Traveling through the dawn of day
You^,re always on my mind
I can^,t stay away

I^,d forgotten about you
Then you turned up again
I always knew
We were meant to be more than friends

When you^,re near
It^,s just as plain as it can be
I^,m wild about you, gal
You ought to be a fool about me

Can^,t explain
The sources of this hidden pain
You burned your way into my heart
You got the key to my brain

I^,ve been trampling through mud
Praying to the powers above
I^,m sweating blood
You got a face that begs for love

Life without you
Doesn^,t mean a thing to me
If I can^,t have you
I^,ll throw my love into the deep blue sea

Sometimes I wonder
Why you can^,t treat me right
You do good all day
And then you do wrong all night

When you^,re with me
I^,m a thousand times happier than I could ever say
What does it matter
What price I pay

They brag about your sugar
Brag about it all over town
Put some sugar in my bowl
I feel like laying down

[ Spirit On The Water lyrics from

I^,m as pale as a ghost
Holding a blossom on a stem
You ever seen a ghost? No
But you have heard of them

I see you there
I^,m blinded by the colors I see
I take good care
Of what belongs to me

I hear your name
Ringing up and down the line
I^,m saying it plain
These ties are strong enough to bind

Now your sweet voice
Calls out from some old familiar shrine
I got no choice
Can^,t believe these things would ever fade from your mind

I could live forever
With you perfectly
You don^,t ever
Have to make a fuss over me

From East to West
Ever since the world began
I only mean it for the best
I want to be with you any way I can

I been in a brawl
Now I^,m feeling the wall
I^,m going away baby
I won^,t be back ^,til fall

High on the hill
You can carry all my thoughts with you
You^,ve numbed my will
This love could tear me in two

I wanna be with you in paradise
And it seems so unfair
I can^,t go to paradise no more
I killed a man back there

You think I^,m over the hill
You think I^,m past my prime
Let me see what you got
We can have a whoppin^, good time
