Been walking on water
Salt burning my skin
Got my hand in my new friend's
You don't wanna know where we've been
Walking through the desert
Rain blinding my eyes
Said to my new friend
Better find an alibi
I felt muddy waters soothe my aching head
If I could lie in the arms of my darling
Back in her feather bed
Happiness and sorrow
Tears of joy and pain
I would do it all
Do it all again
All the things that beauty
Can ever contain
Come to an end
In fire and flame
I felt muddy waters soothe my aching head
If I could lie in the arms of my darling
Back in her feather bed
Set loose high and dry
Way above a crossroads
Watching the old boys
Slappin' down the dominos
I can see the road behind me
And the one up ahead
If you can find me
I can lay down my head
If I could lie in the arms of my darling, once again
Smell the orange blossom, hear the gentle rain
I felt muddy waters soothe my aching head
If I could lie in the arms of my darling
Back in her feather bed."
