Buried in Water Lyrics

Like a lamb to its slaughter
Buried in waterDown
Under the ground
There's a town there
I've been down there
In the middle of the lake
I hold your hand, for goodness' sakeWhen the women and the kids are asleep
The walls there
And the skin of the sheep
So lock all the windows and doors
The Devil's coming for you and yoursLove was all that it could give
But it died so other towns could live
They don't bury bodies from the drowned
But they drowned our little townLike a lamb to his slaughter
Buried in water
Buried in waterBuried in waterWhen the leaves
Go floating away
In the pale moonlight of day

Iury anchors in our ghosts
And we can let our heartbeats goLove was all that it could give
But it died so other towns could live
They don't bury bodies from the drowned
But they drowned our little townLove was all that it could give
But it died so other towns could live
They don't bury bodies from the drowned
But they drowned our little townWe're like the lambs to its slaughter
Buried in water
Buried in water
Buried in water
