I was floating in the cool of your river I was drifting in a tide of pure water Oh wash me in the flood of creation Don't take me down Don't take me down with you My innocence has all but been taken Oh given to the cruelty of strangers Who took me out from safety to danger Don't take me down
Don't take me down with you Don't take me down my friend I wanna live my time again yea Got so used to loser's luck But I don't wanna give it up I'm comin' up to take my breath again Oh love is like a pool of forgiveness
I wish that I could fly with the angels Don't take me down Don't take me down with you I've been caught by the spell of temptation I've been burned by the hell of damnation And I don't need to be taken there again All I want's for this wounded heart to mend
