Saturate Me

Mandy Moore

 

This desert I wander lacks its mirage

There's no mistaking the barrage

Of sand and wind that tears my skin

Leaving what's without, exposing what's within

Forsaken, left here in my barren desolate

 

My soul is evaporating

Won't you saturate me, won't you saturate me

Rain down on me with life

My soul is evaporating

Won't you saturate me, won't you saturate me

Storm around me bring the tide

 

My days stretch long into the heat

As the sun brightens my defeat

My lips are chapped, they're parched and dry

My thirst it builds with every day gone by

Forsaken, left here in my barren desolate

 

My soul is evaporating

Won't you saturate me, won't you saturate me

Rain down on me with life

My soul is evaporating

Won't you saturate me, won't you saturate me

Storm around me bring the tide

 

The dunes, that shift

Drift and lift in the wind

Cover up my hope as I

Start to give in

To the cracks and creases

And the dips in my will

As I am pushed toward the brink

I drink down arid swill

 

My soul is evaporating

Won't you saturate me, won't you saturate me

Rain down on me with life

My soul is evaporating

Won't you saturate me, won't you saturate me

Storm around me bring the tide
