More in my face than is my taste
I grow so weary, I'll surrender
To what they say let them lead the way
Till I can no longer rememberMy darling dreams pre-written scenes
Whatever felt my own
So, to save face, I'll take my place
Where I may safely feel aloneGlad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs so cold
Glad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs coldGlad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs so cold
Glad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs coldI'm quick to wait and so to hate
They call me gracious for my patience
And I feel proud under that shroud
And all the while it's all evasionSome humor here to fend off fear
And I'm a little more lost, oh dear
So to save face, I'll hold my place
So, I may safely feel aloneGlad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs so cold
Glad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs coldGlad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs so cold
Glad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs coldGlad the waters are so shallow
The waters are so shallowGlad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs so cold
Glad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs coldGlad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs so cold
Glad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs coldGlad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs so cold
Glad the waters are so shallow
When the river runs cold
