jane siberry - walk on water (2016) lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
hey, yeah
ooh, yeah

[verse 1]
i was standing at the back of a crowd
at the edge of the sea, a multitude
a single word
a hush would fall

[verse 2]
(i prayed) i prayed that your gaze might fall on me
that my longing might part the sea of faces
and in my misery
i turned and walked away
[chorus]
come up my brother
come up my sister (my sister)
come up my children (my children)
and walk on water with me

[verse 3]
i walked away from that crowd
out along a long and dusty road
i saw a woman
she was lying there in pain
crying out to me

[verse 4]
but i was so absorbed
in my own loneliness (loneliness)
are you not my brother?
i guess not yet
oh, to turn back the hands of time
drowning in my shame

[chorus]
come up my brother (my brother)
come up my sister (my sister)
come up my children (my children)
and walk on water with me
(come on)
[verse 5]
i’d give anything (i’d give anything) to hear your voice
to touch your hand, your hem, anything
i knelt down in hopelessness
hopelessness, hopelessness (ah)

[verse 6]
i’d give everything to feel your grace (feel your grace)
to wash your feet, kiss your hem, anything
i knelt down in thankfulness (thankfulness)
and then i felt virtue flow to me

[chorus]
i heard, come up my brother (come up my brother)
i heard, come up my sister (come up my sister)
come up my children (come up my children)
and walk on water with me

[verse 7]
oh, that was the night of nights
i stood against the sea
in that strange starlight
i felt the wind upon my face
i thought i heard my name

[outro]
i thought i heard my name (our names)
our names, our names
our names, our names
