Jon Foreman - Holy Water lyrics

(Because hope deserves an anthem) [Verse 1] Give me something I can feel This time I wanna rain dance for real Wash the dust of dirty wheels Give me the waters that could help me heal and Hold the old me down (Give me the waters that could help me heal) Hold the old me down (Let the rain come down) [Chorus 1] On the thirsty ground Let the rains come down I want to drink the clouds Like holy water [Verse 2] I felt like this when I was a boy A firefly in Illinois A pair of wings and an electric heart Broken wings and a shot in the dark With that fire in our eyes (Lighting up the summertime sky) With that fire in our eyes (I felt so alive) [Chorus 2] But now I'm praying for rain I want to make that change I got your blood in my veins Like holy water [Bridge] Sisters, sons, and daughters Hold me down with the holy water Blisters, guns, and fathers Hold me down with the... Sisters, sons, and daughters Hold me down with the holy water Hold me down with the holy water Like holy water My head is aching like a riot 40 days in the desert pain When I hear the lies I don't buy it Still looking for the desert rain and I Fight the fire with the fire I want to taste your love again and I Let the flood rise higher Wash the doubt away [Chorus 2] But now I'm praying for rain I want to make that change I got your blood in my veins Like holy water (Like holy water)
