Better Way

I was wading in the mire, deep in the mud It was sticking to my soles, drowning my love Breathing in words of wisdom from fairweather friends I was dreaming of a better way Found myself like a fire finds folly in the flood Suffocating just to sit where others stood Found your eyes, they were drifting up toward mine You were looking for a better way Kristina, my believer You pinned me down and I've carved out your name Kristina, my believer I found your love like a river finds its way Sleepless nights we rumbled, tumbled in the dark Finally lost within knowing how honest love can start Touched your body, I made it all my own And you held me in those unfamiliar ways Kristina, my believer You pinned me down and I carved out your name Kristina, my believer I found your love like a river finds its way Kristina, my believer You pinned me down and I carved out your name Kristina, my believer I found your love like a river finds its way
