I was floating in the cool of your river
|
I was drifting in a tide of pure water
|
Oh wash me in the flood of creation
|
Don't take me down
|
Don't take me down with you
|
|
My innocence has all but been taken
|
Oh given to the cruelty of strangers
|
Who took me out from safety to danger
|
Don't take me down
|
Don't take me down with you
|
|
Don't take me down my friend
|
I wanna live my time again yea
|
Got so used to loser's luck
|
But I don't wanna give it up
|
|
I'm comin' up to take my breath again
|
Oh love is like a pool of forgiveness
|
I wish that I could fly with the angels
|
Don't take me down
|
Don't take me down with you
|
|
I've been caught by the spell of temptation
|
I've been burned by the hell of damnation
|
And I don't need to be taken there again
|
All I want's for this wounded heart to mend
|

Don't Take Me Down
