Treading Water - Foy Vance

I will not hang around

For one defining day

When I figure out

What’s happening

You can’t expect me now

To sit around and wait

And yet not scream and shout

Oh it’s too late

I need you now

Show me your crown

Or to bless the ground

On the path that I’ve found

Or to give or to take

Know I don’t mind what you say

But I can’t keep treading water this way

Some send an angel down

Like in the days of old

And then I’m me surrounded

By a heavenly girl

And let him talk out loud

So that I can be sure

Beyond a shadow of doubt

Once more

Just how long it will take

For my soul to come down

It’s always awake

And wildly roaming 'round

In this deserted place

Oh, but roses have been found

Resembling your face

I need you now

To show me your crown

Or to bless the ground

On the path that I’ve found

Or to give or to take

Know I don’t mind what you say

But I can’t keep treading water this way

No, I can’t keep treading water this way
