I didn´t know you, I never knew you Now I´m never gonna see you again An acquaintance all my childhood years I could never call you a friend I was afraid that I might become you
I was afraid you might appear As a weight upon my chest at night And a whisper in my ear Oh, the watershed I built And wept enough that I could fill it So the ground beneath my feet would yield Enough that I could heal it I´m gonna get it back, gonna get better Gonna get it fixed, gonna burn that letter I don´t know what´s coming but I´ll take it Whatever now For I was born to another vocation I was born in another era I wasn´t born that I should live my life Beneath your failure and fear Every night the storm grew closer Every day the fire drew near When they´d meet upon this acre
And I prayed it´d up and disappear Oh, the watershed I built And wept enough that I could fill it So the ground beneath my feet would yield Enough that I could heal it I´m gonna get it back, gonna get better Gonna get it fixed, gonna burn that letter I don´t know what´s coming but I´ll take it Whatever now You didn´t know it, you didn´t see me As you went about your work I was hiding in the pantry I was practicing the shirk By the time my shoulders straightened up And my hands were strong enough You couldn´t lift an arm against her You were too ill for that kind of stuff Oh, the watershed I built
And wept enough that I could fill it So the ground beneath my feet would yield Enough that I could heal it Women don´t see it when they´re with the wrong fella Women don´t see it ´cos you know they don´t wanna Women don´t see it when they´re with the wrong fella Women don´t see it ´cos you know they don´t wanna I could see it coming but I know It doesn´t matter now
