If you lead me to water, swear that I will drink
Can you offer me a hand? I think
I need you more than ever now, I need you more than ever
I don't wanna suffer, I can't take the pain
Can you lift me from the gutter, save me from the rain?
Can you love me like a brother, tell me it's okay?
Help me to recover and I'll run away
Can you teach me to fish so I can feed myself?
Can you help me like this, take me down to the well?
Can you please take me down to the well? Mm-mm
If you lead me to water, swear that I will drink
Can you offer me a hand? I think
I need you more than ever now, I need you more than ever
If you lead me to water, then I'll take a sip
Can you offer me a hand, your grip?
I need you more than ever now, I need you more than ever
I don't wanna struggle, I don't wanna die
Right now, I'm in trouble, struggling to survive
I don't know how to juggle, how to live my life
Wish I could be more subtle, but I don't wanna lie
Can you teach me to fish so I can feed myself?
Can you help me like this, take me down to the well?
Can you please take me down to the well? Mm-mm
If you lead me to water, swear that I will drink
Can you offer me a hand? I think
I need you more than ever now, I need you more than ever
If you lead me to water, then I'll take a sip
Can you offer me a hand, your grip?
I need you more than ever now, I need you more than ever
I don't think I can do it by myself
I don't think I can do it by myself
If you lead me to water, swear that I will drink
Can you offer me a hand? I think
I need you more than ever now, I need you more than ever
If you lead me to water, then I'll take a sip
Can you offer me a hand, your grip?
I need you more than ever now, I need you more than ever
Can you teach me to fish so I can feed myself?
Can you help me like this, take me down to the well?
Can you please take me down to the well? Mm-mm
