Just wrote this and had to record it instantly. This is the first take. With some harmonies added afterwards. You know, I love first takes. When I'm still trying to get to know my own words. No analysis, no time for afterthought. First takes are never perfect. They're bare. This is just another sketch. Another diary entry. With a melody to it.
Lyrics:
Down in the water
I went down looking for the end
Down in the water
Found a breathing space
Down in the water
Down beyond my common sense
I found a man
Alone by himself
Deep down where no souls could hear us
Deep down where no one dares to go
Deep down where life is safe from harm
Deep down where willingless bodies flow
Down in the water
I went down looking for the end
Down in the water
I had nothing to lose
Down in the water
What kind of God did come up with hiding love down in the water?
Down in the water
Deep down where no souls could hear us
Deep down where no one dares to go
Deep down where life is safe from harm
Deep down where willingless bodies flow
