"Father Mckenzie" lyrics

"Father Mckenzie"

Eleanor
You're perfect in every single way
And I should've left my vows down by the lake -
'Cause I can't live this way
Used to be, I could see the hall light up around your face
Where the pews stayed empty long before you came
When I thought I could live this way

Eleanor
You're perfect in every single way
Never thought I'd stand here lonely on the lake
I can't live this way
With my covenant showing nothing to embrace
Something real I'd love to feel you here to stay
But I know you couldn't live that way

Eleanor
I never should've buried you today
But I see your face reflecting off the lake
In the clouds where your head will lay
Used to be, empty seats defeated me and stripped my faith
But my seed is sewn in peter's gates my fate
Will lead right back to you someday

Something's in the water, was it you?
Something's in the water was it you?
Wash over me
