Close To The Water Lyrics

Verse:
Keep me safe when the soldiers come
They'll take our children and drink our rum
Nowhere safe for these kids to play
The water's deep child stay away
Get on step on live fast die young wits fast sharp tongue
Mistrust in our society, you're not alone, you're not free

Chorus:
Hold me close
Don't let me go
Life throws at you more than you'll know
Don't stray too close to the water it might be the last thing that you do

Verse:
Keep me safe as the waters rise
Comfort only achieved through lies
Nowhere safe for these kids to hate Protest constructive demonstrate
Man up, step out, live fast die young, grow old break moulds
Get away grow your wings theres more to life than cages and keys

Chorus:
Hold me close
Don't let me go
Life throws at you more than you'll know
Don't stray too close to the water it might be the last thing that you do

-- Bridge --

Chorus:
Hold me close
Don't let me go
Life throws at you more than you'll know
Don't stray too close to the water it might be the last thing that you do (x3)
