Bring Me Some Water Lyrics

Tonight I feel so weak

But all in love is fair

I turn the other cheek

And I feel the slap and the sting of the foul night air

And I know you're only human

And I haven't got talking room

But tonight while I'm making excuses

Some other woman is making love to you

Somebody bring me some water

Can't you see I'm burning alive

Can't you see my baby's got another lover

I don't know how I'm gonna survive

Somebody bring me some water

Can't you see it's out of control

Baby's got my heart and my baby's got my mind

But tonight the sweet Devil's got my soul

When will this aching pass

When will this night be through

I want to hear the breaking glass

I only feel the steel of the red hot truth

And I'd do anything to get it out of my mind

I need some insanity that temporary kind

Tell me how will I ever be the same

When I know that woman is whispering your name

Somebody bring me some water

Can't you see I'm burning alive

Can't you see my baby's got another lover

I don't know how I'm gonna survive

Somebody bring me some water

Can't you see it's out of control

Baby's got my heart and my baby's got my mind

But tonight the sweet Devil's got my soul

Oh, the Devil's got my soul

Somebody bring me some water

Can't you see I'm burning alive

Can't you see my baby's got another lover

I don't know how I'm gonna survive

Somebody bring me some water

Can't you see it's out of control

Baby's got my heart and my baby's got my mind

But tonight the sweet Devil's got my soul
