God Was In The Water Lyrics

Bonnie Raitt - God Was In the Water
(Randall Bramblett/Davis Causey)God was in the water that day
Pickin' through the roots and stones
Trippin' over sunken logs
Tryin' not to make his presence knownGod was in the water that day
Wadin' in careful steps
Bubbles risin' from his feet
Comin' up from the muddy depthsCastin' out a line
Castin' out a line to the shadows
Castin' out a line but no one's bitingI am at my pitiful desk
Starin' at he colorless walls
Wishin' I was any place else
Down into a dream I fallSittin' in a tiny boat
Driftin' on the mindless sea
And if I disappear
At least I'm floating freeCastin' out a line
Castin' out a line to the darkness
Castin' out a line but no one's bitingGod was in the air that day

Breathin' out a haunted breeze
Tryin' not to make a sound
Shufflin' through the dried up leavesGod was in the air that day
Circlin' like a drunken hawk
Sweepin' with a hungry eye
Over the ground I walkCastin' out a line
Castin' out a line to the darkness
Castin' out a line but no one's bitingCastin' out a line
Castin' out a line to the shadows
Castin' out a line but no one's biting
