You promised me
There'd be no denials
When I was weak
Under your spell
When I feel thirsty
You would not let me
Take water from your well
Well big black road
Big black river
Big black heaven
In the sky above
I need someone I can talk to
I need someone I can love
So I went down to that valley
To a boy that I once knew
And he looked at me so tender
Oh baby like you used to do
Well big black road
Big black river
Big black heaven
In the sky above
I need someone I can talk to
I need someone I can love
So I crossed
That river of temptation
And I lay down
In that young boys arms
And there
I claimed my destination
Through this
One last unforgiving harm
Well big black road
Big black river
Big black heaven
In the sky above
I need someone I can talk to
I need someone I can love
