The Water's edge
Chorus
Lots of things happen
by the water's edge.
Some of them are better,
better left unsaid.
Once you're in;
You're in too deep
and secrets remain
secrets you keep.
Verse
Summertime fantasies;
clothes hung on a limb.
It was innocence;
introduced to sin.
Once we'd done it once
we went back for more.
I often think and wonder
if you had a girl or boy.
Chorus
Lots of things happen
by the water's edge.
Some of them are better,
better left unsaid.
Once you're in;
you're in too deep
and secrets remain
secrets you keep.
Bridge
Guilt is not the same as shame
but it cuts you just as deep.
Either one or both of them
can rob you of your sleep.
Verse
Had to do the right thing
better late than not at all.
Couldn't live with myself
so I dropped in for a call.
You didn't greet me with a smile
Weren't sure what to say
so I said, If you don't hate me
maybe I can stay.
Chorus
Lots of promises happen
by the water's edge.
Some of them are better,
Better if they're kept
Once you're in;
you're in too deep
and promises should be
promises you keep. |
