In the cold, cold morning
Thought I heard you calling
In the half-light just before the dawning of the day
Half awake and dreaming
When untapped thoughts were streaming
Thought I heard you telling me you'll take it all away
At the turn of midnight
In the burning far light
Did I see your fragile figure dancing in the flames
Beyond the realms of reason
Untamed and out of season
Could you be the missing key that gives my need a name
Lady of the water
Lead me to hallow ground
Lady of the water
Take me where I long to be found
My days are full of faces
Of racketeers and chasers
I pray for a drop of rain in a street that's full of sand
The city can undo you
Cut its teeth right through you
I'm looking for that open door in the grace of your hand
Lady of the water
Lead me to hallow ground
Lady of the water
Take me where I long to be found
In the cold, cold morning
Thought I heard you calling
In the half-light just before the dawning of the day
Half awake and dreaming
When untapped thoughts were streaming
Thought I heard you telling me you'll take it all away
Lady of the water
Lead me to hallow ground
Lady of the water
Take me where I long to be found
