LyricMeaning

Until the Levee
Joy Williams

I see a ghost out on the water

I swear it has my face

I bend and drink the lonely down, the lonely down

There's trouble on the river

And whispers in the trees

I can feel it all around, all around

I'm gonna stand

I'm gonna stand here in the ache

Until the levee, until the levee on my heart breaks

I'm gonna wait out past the shadows

And breathe the bitter taste

I'm gonna drink the lonely down, the lonely down

Let the current take me over

Let the ruin turn to white

I can feel it all around, all around

I'm gonna stand

I'm gonna stand here in the ache, until the levee

Until the levee on my heart breaks

I'm gonna stand

I'm gonna stand here in the ache, the ache, the ache

So go and let it break

Take all I can take

I'm gonna stand

I'm gonna stand here in the ache

Until the levee

Ohhhhh

Until the levee on my heart breaks

I'm gonna stand

I'm gonna stand here in the ache

Until the levee

Until the levee on my heart

Breaks
