Verse 1
Can I draw some water, babe?
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

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
