Linda Ronstadt - Rock Me on the Water lyrics

Oh people look around you The signs are everywhere You left him for somebody other than you To be the one to care You're lost inside your houses There's no time to find you now Oh your walls are burning And your towers are turning I've gotta leave you here And try to get down to the sea somehow Rock me on the water Sister won't you soothe my fevered brow O-oh rock me on the water Gotta get down to the sea somehow The road is filled with homeless souls Every woman child and man Who have no idea where they will go But they'll help you if they can Now everyone must have some thought That's gonna pull them through somehow Well the fires are raging hotter and hotter But the sisters of the sun Are gonna rock me on the water now Rock me on the water Sister won't you soothe my fevered brow O-oh rock me on the water I gotta get down to the sea somehow Oh people look among you It's there your hope must lie There's a seabird above you gliding in one place Like Jesus in the sky We all must do the best we can And then hang onto that gospel cloud When my life is over Gonna stand for the father But the sisters of the sun Are gonna rock me on the water now Rock me on the water Sister won't you soothe my fevered brow O-oh rock me on the water Then maybe I'll remember Maybe I'll remember how Rock me on the water The wind is with me now O-oh rock me on the water Gotta get down to the sea somehow I gotta get down to the sea somehow
