Augustana Sweet And Low Lyrics

Sweet And Low Lyrics

Anywhere you go, anyone you meet

Remember that your eyes can be your enemy

I said well hell is so close and heaven's out of reach

But I ain't giving up quite yet, I've got too much to lose



Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl

Hold me down, sweet and low and I'll carry you home

Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl

Hold me down and I'll carry you home



Rain is gonna fall, the sun is gonna shine

The wind is gonna blow, the water's gonna rise

She said, "When that day comes look into my eyes"

But no one's giving up quite yet, we've got too much to lose



Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl

Hold me down, sweet and low and I'll carry you home

Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl

So hold me down



And I'll carry you all the way when you say you're fine

But you're still young and out of line

When all I need's to turn around

To make it last, to make it count



I ain't gonna make the same mistakes

That put my mama in her grave

I don't wanna be alone



Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl

Hold me down, sweet and low and I'll carry you home

Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl

So hold me down and I'll carry you home
