Something In The Well Lyrics

[00:06.09] Woke last night to that same sound
[00:11.82] First, I thought it was you breathin'
[00:16.89] Got out of bed and went to the window
[00:22.16] Just as a cloud rushed 'cross the moon
[00:27.53] Baby, baby, there's something in the well
[00:32.52] There's something in the well
[00:40.13] Lately I've been watchin' that corner of the field
[00:45.20] Out where the old black willow fell
[00:50.27] Things can seem so safe and sure
[00:55.75] But you can never really tell
[01:02.34] Baby, baby, there's something in the well
[01:07.31] Something waiting in the well
[01:17.76] Now, I boarded it up myself back a lot of years
[01:23.00] It's too long a story to tell
[01:27.78] But there was no more sadness, no more tears
[01:33.77] And since, I've guarded it well
[01:38.59] Oh, there's some secrets that should never be told
[01:43.65] There's some words that should never be said
[01:48.49] Now I know there's things in this world, baby
[01:53.22] That should stay locked up forever inside our heads
[02:00.86] Baby, baby, there's something in the well
[02:06.07] There's something in the well
[02:16.11] Folks in town forgot, now they don't much care
[02:21.75] See, quiet years passed, but I could still feel it there
[02:28.55] Snow melted off the fields, summer crops came through
[02:33.94] Still, it stayed silent, then I met you
[02:43.68] Well, last night, darling, I did sleep
[02:49.94] Naked on the dark spring ground
[02:54.10] The leaves in the trees came alive and spoke to me
[02:59.62] And I could feel the dirt 'neath me movin' 'round
[03:04.85] Hey, the well was torn open and I stared down
[03:10.29] Into the muddy darkness, my black tears fell
[03:15.46] Stars spread their false light on the earth
[03:21.64] Moon slipped from the sky and fell
[03:26.23] And my love for you came rushin' forward
[03:31.59] And my fear and hatred as well
[03:36.15] Hell, things can seem so safe and sure
[03:42.05] But you can never really tell
[03:45.58] There's something in the well
[03:48.32]
