[Verse 1] High waters I'm in a broken dream I buried deep a soul that weeps When I can't keep a promise I said last week I hold my tongue and sink so deep [Chorus] Only high waters let me sleep Let me breath a sigh of relief If I go under, I don't let go I'm learning things I never showed [Chorus] High waters, high waters Let me breathe again High waters, high waters Wash the weight from my sin High waters, high waters Hold me till I'm clean High waters, high waters That's the way I've been [Verse 2] If I didn't swim in high waters I wouldn't of been alive this long My mind right this long only been in high waters all along The tide knew me before I was strong [Chorus] Only high waters let me sleep Let me breath a sigh of relief If I go under, don't let go I'm learning things I never showed [Chorus] High waters, high waters Let me breathe again High waters, high waters Wash the weight from my sin High waters, high waters Hold me till I'm clean High waters, high waters That's the way I've been [Bridge] And if the dark comes back for me I'll make a home in the deep I won't run from what I know I let the hurt be part of me [Chorus] High waters, high waters Let me breathe again High waters, high waters Wash the weight from my sin High waters, high waters Hold me till I'm clean High waters, high waters That's the way I've been
