Verse 1
Can I draw some water, babe?
From your well?
Can I draw some water, babe?
‘Cause mine has failed
The bucket won’t come up
No matter how hard I crank
The bucket won’t come up
I think it sank
Chorus
I walk the road between your house and mine
I hope the bridge hasn’t collapsed
I hope the man at the gate will let me through
Unless, he’s holding on to you
Holding on to you
Verse 2
How has your garden grown?
Is there fruit on your trees?
Do you need a laborer
To pull up those weeds?
Oh, I am so lonely, babe
In my house on the hill
Oh, I am so lonely, baby
The silence kills
Chorus
I walk the road between your house and mine
I hope the bridge hasn’t collapsed
I hope the man at the gate will let me through
Unless, he’s holding on to you
Holding on to you
Verse 3
I wish that I could sit
In your garden again
And watch the stars at night
From your bed
Chorus
I walk the road between your house and mine
I hope the bridge hasn’t collapsed
I hope the man at the gate will let me through
Unless, he’s holding on to you
Holding on to you
