Waitin'  for my ride
 Jesus is floatin' outside
 (Shine on, sweet Jesus,  on me)
Watchin'  the water rise
 I'm gettin' lost in the tide
 (Cry all your teardrops  on me)
 While I'm  still myself,
 Your blankets  covered me
Covered  me while I  was still asleep
 1:28-1:46):
 1:46-2:23)
Watchin'  the planets shine
 Reflecting yourself in the sky
 (Shine on, sweet  Jesus, on me)
Scraping  these smiles of mine
 Impossible one at a time
 (Cry all your teardrops  on me)
 While I'm  still myself,
 Your blankets  covered me
Covered  me while I  was still asleep
 (2:23-3:04)
 
 (3:05-3:42)
 Jesus is  at my side,
 Wondering what he will find
 (Shine on, sweet Jesus,  on me)
Watchin'  the water rise
 I'm gettin' lost in the tide
 (Cry all your teardrops  on me)
 While I'm  still myself
 Your blankets  covered me
Covered  me while I  was still asleep
 3:42-4:25)
