Waterdeep: this song moves me..

I love the band Waterdeep. This song has been in heavy rotation on the ipod recently. I like the image of a river; sometimes it would be nice to be carried along by the tide of a cool river. Not in the sense of giving up, but of letting go, letting something greater than you take ahold, feeling safe, yet carried and pushed. Anyone ever jumped into a cold lake on a scorching hot summer day; feels good eh?

Homebound Henry's got a tumor in his head He wakes up every morning after dreaming he was dead He used to think that life was boring, but now that's not the case He turns to his wife in the evening, he says "Honey I'm afraid I'm gonna lose this race."

Sweet River, roll all over me

Sweet River, roll all over me

Soaking wet Juliet- she lives in a well full of tears Her husband left her for some bimbo after twenty-two years Now she's got to start all over, but she's just so terrified She thinks it woulda been so much easier if he woulda just died And I'm lookin out my car window sittin' in the pouring rain Although your house is fifteen miles away, I can still feel your pain I've thought and prayed and worked it through about a hundred times or more How your soul just cries to everyone to help you get up off the floor Right now it's morning, you're probably sleepin', totally unaware of the flood of kisses you hold back by the way that you despair It ain't me I'm talking about here, or anybody else you can touch That's all I want to say right now, I don't want to say too much except

Sweet Jesus, roll all over me

Sweet Jesus, roll all over me...

You gotta come down and just set

me free
