Carry The Water Lyrics

Hornsby Bruce
A Night On The Town
Carry The Water
(by Bruce Hornsby)

Some live life with eyes that don't see
They look away at the time of your greatest need
Some talk, some'll just do, some just turn their back
Turn around and just walk away
I know i've done that
Lonely days and lonely nights
Easy to be cynical
Never put yourself on the line
I'd like to reach out
Well, why don't I?
Take the load up off your back
I'd like to try

Let me carry the water
Let me carry the weight
I will bear your burden
Let me carry the load

Working hard, sweating all day
In the long hot sun
Feel alone with a heavy heart
You're not the only one

Bossman says time to jump
We say how high
If you need a hand getting off your feet
Baby, i'll try

I want to cover tou
Like the sea on the sand
Easy to be cynical
Never take a stand
Easy for me not to give a damn
I'll ask you to call for me
And i'll give you a hand

Let me carry the water
Let me carry the load
I will shoulder your burden
Let me carry the load

Lonely nights and lonely days
You wait for someone to come along
And sweep you away
I'll put myself out there
It just might feel good
I don't always do that
But I think I should
