JUST LIKE JORDAN

I've danced with the devil and I've seen the light,

Trading sweet Sunday mornings for Saturday nights.

Never thought of myself as the churchgoing kind

But some Sunday mornings, it crosses my mind.

 

But, when I look at you, asleep in my sheets,

I wonder if heaven could ever compete.

 

Refrain:       I would lose sight of everything to make you see,

You're just like Jordan to me.

 

When all hope is fleeting, not a friend can be found,

On the banks of your river I'll lay myself down.

Some people die waiting for what I've got now

And I thank God for it every time you're around.

 

When the blue light of morning is lost in your hair,

I leave my eyes open and search for a prayer.

 

Refrain:       Oh, as long as I'm lost in your crystalline stream,

You're just like Jordan to me.


Love is the greatest of all things, I know,

In the warmth of your water, I'll rock a my soul.

On the banks of your river, forever I'll stand

With my head tied in white and my knees in the sand.

 

The second I saw you, I planted my feet,

Nothing this side of heaven could convince me to leave.

 

Refrain:       I would lose sight of everything to make you see,

You're just like Jordan to me.
