Love Like Water
Love was a desert.
I was a thirsty man,
Desperately searching
Out on the burning sand.
And you, you were a river to me.
When every prayer I whispered
Fell down and turned to dust,
I moved from one dry well to another,
Looking for a friend that I could trust,
You washed in like the sea.
I ran a fever til you came around.
It’s getting hotter. Won’t you cool me down.
CHORUS:
Cause your love is like water.
You give life to a dying man.
O your love is like water.
Gimme all you can.
Gimme all you can.
Life was a wasteland,
Salted by my tears.
Then you poured your liquid
On a heart that had been hardening for years.
O you baptized me.
So come on hard rain
Over dry and rocky ground.
I’m drinking from a cool spring
That never will run dry while you’re around.
Roll on in and cover me.
I ran a fever till you came around.
It’s getting hotter. Won’t you cool me down.
