Written In The Water Lyrics

I was born by the devil
I was left here to die
I lost hell out of ransom on the cold summer sky
I was told not to love him
I was told not to try
I was lonely the only 'till he said he'd be mine
He will leave me for younger
He will leave me to cry
Cut them, night, a little deeper
Count the days I survived

Yeah
It's written in the water
Yeah
It's everywhere I go
Tellin' me that I should leave you like I did two times before

I define if I meant to
When you still have had your own
Give me one kiss for the road boy
I guess it's time I left you alone

I will run to the river
I will reach for the well
Drown my sorrows for someone
In my hope I leave this hell
I can't live for forgiveness
I can't live with the lie
I won't be what you wanted
No, I won't be what you like

Yeah
It's written in the water
Yeah
It's everywhere I go
Tellin' me that I should leave you like I did two times before

I define if I meant to
When you still have had your own
Give me one kiss for the road, boy
I guess it's time I left you alone

Yeah
It's written in the water
Yeah
It's everywhere I go
Tellin' me that I should leave you like I did two times before

I define if I meant to
When you still have had your own
Give me one kiss for the road, boy
I guess it's time I left you alone

Yeah
It's written in the water
Yeah
It's everywhere I go
Tellin' me that I should leave you like I did two times before

I define if I meant to
When you still have had your own
Give me one kiss for the road, boy
I guess it's time I left you alone
