The Drowning Pool
You were my first, you were my last
You were my best, you were the worst
My loving kiss, my special bliss
Oh, only you defeat me, only you complete me
Down we go to the drowning pool below
You were all hope, lost at my gate
You were my best, my best mistake
Unanswered prayers, broken faith
Ah, only you defeat me, only you complete me
Down we go to the drowning pool below
Burning down the stilt house in the heat of fractured dreams
You reached for love in Old Thorns but don’t know what it means
God it was who lit the spark but God knows you are in the dark
You had grail more precious than all gold
Now we’re not even smiling on Church Road
In the drowning swell of lost amour
Through the Mouth of Eros you say you can’t feel it anymore
But in fires of hell, as your flood tides burst
Yeah and once again you’re in a mess, sending me that SOS
To meet you in your drowning pool below
No matter what the trouble is, no matter what you’ve done
My loving arms are open wide, I will be right by your side
Only I complete you though you’d be the last to know
So eager in your urgency and flow
Please believe me girl and know with all your soul
My love will lead you from the drowning pool below
