tessy lou williams - why do i still want you lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there’s an old tear+stained worn king james bible on my lap
i can hear mama now say “it won’t let you down” oh and it never has
so i turn to the psalms straight to the one that i can quote by heart
but the words that used to comfort me oh they’re tearing me apart

{chorus]
“he leadeth me through death’s dark valley and by still water too”
“surely goodness and his sweet mercy” they’re gonna pull me through
but tonight i wrestle with the devil, i wrestle with the truth
if the lord is my shepherd and i shall not want then why do i still want you?

[verse 2]
now all my friends say this will end, you’re not the one i need
’cause i’m the kind that loves for life and son you’re the kind that leaves
but i’ve been prayin’ and i’ve been waitin’ for some kind of peace
bu you have phoned so i’m leanin’ on old psalm 23

{chorus]
“he leadeth me through death’s dark valley and by still water too”
“surely goodness and his sweet mercy” they’re gonna pull me through
but tonight i wrestle with the devil, i wrestle with the truth
if the lord is my shepherd and i shall not want then why do i still want you?
