'Hell or Highwater' Lyrics by David Duchovny

Song: "Hell or Highwater"
Written by: David Duchovny
Album: Hell or Highwater



Done some good and done some bad like any man I bet
A man of words is a man of lies but words is all I get
I can’t make you feel safe and sound but they got guns and crosses for that
I can only hang around until you realize where it’s at
Cause I can’t make it rain I can’t make it shine
And I can’t turn this shit storm we’re into some rainbow sun shower of holy red wine
But in the test of our love, and the test of my love, and the test of our love, darling, yeah
If it’s multiple choice I got to mark “none of the above”

I said I’d love you forever, come hell or high water, well baby flood’s in
Take my hand fire purges, let rivers wash us clean of our sins
I’ll see you all in white again we’ll beat the devil all ill will be well
I will stand here forever, come on rushing waters, heartbreak and hell

I can’t turn day into night. I can’t turn lead into gold
Not even sure I can see the light to get us off this goddamn deadend road
cause I can’t make it rain and I can’t make it shine
I could try to erase the past of pain but honestly baby who has that kind of time
So in the test of our love, when push comes to shove, in test of our love, darling, yeah
If it’s multiple choice I’m gonna mark, “all of the above”

Cause I said I’d love you forever, come hell or highwater, well baby flood’s in
Take my hand fire purges, let rivers wash us clean of our sins
I’ll see you all in white again we’ll beat the devil all ill will be well
I will stand here forever, come on rushing waters, heartbreak and hell

I won’t wipe away the tears you cry with any tissue of lies
You can build your life on empty promises or with man who promises to try
See cause I can stand out in the rain, and I can work under the sun, and I can out wait your disdain til all this nonsense is done

I said I’d love you forever, come hell or highwater, well baby flood’s in
Take my hand fire purges, let rivers wash us clean of our sins
I’ll see you all in white again we’ll beat the devil all ill will be well
I will stand here forever, come on rushing waters, heartbreak and hell
