The Sweetwater Shallows, Andreas Vassiliades, Argyro Christodoulides, Constantinos Vassiliades, Dario Curcio, Jessica Blake Gibson, John Socrates Papaioannou, Martin Meyer and Matthew Charles Howe - Praise You

Intro:
I'm coming back to praise you, one day
I'll be back to raise you, one day

Verse 1:
Every time I light a candle
I leave it by the window
c gentle breeze enchants the flame
cnd as it flickers in the twilight
I can almost hear her voice
Inviting me to dance again, oh yea

Verse 2:
Just like shadows in moonlight
There's a figure of a woman
In vibrant gypsy dress
cnd a look inside her eyes, like she knows
Yea she knows
Where I was last night, oh yea

Chorus 1:
I'm coming back to haunt you, she says
I'll be back to haunt you; I can hear her in my head
N' slowly as the day breaks and her voice begins to fade
I can see the sweet reflection of every memory we made
cnd I know, yes I know
She'll be back again, oh yea
She'll be back again, oh yea

Verse 3:
Many times, I lost my temper
But my voice was too loud to be heard
N' I tried to make amends
But my withered memories, they made me cry
N' I don't know why
But they brought tears, to my eyes

Verse 4:
So now, I'm just a gambler
But the dealer's never on my side
N' the joker never helps me
He just smiles with every piece of gold they take from me
I'm never dealt an ace you see
They just laugh at me, at every hand

Chorus 2:
N' they'll be back to burn me, again
They'll be back to turn me; I know that I can't win
cnd unapologetically they call my final bluff
cnd another shot of whisky never seems to be enough
To numb the pain, of this game
But I'll be back to play them, again
I'll be back to pay them, again

Chorus 3:
I'll be back to praise you, one day
I'll be back to raise you; I'm gonna take you far away
N' as place that holds you captive, slowly tumbles to the sea
I'll steel you in the night, and give you wings to set you free
N' every memory, will turn into a treasury
Of the rarest diamonds, from the deepest sea
cnd my redemption, is slowly closing in on me

Outro:
I'll be back to praise you, one day
I'll be back to take you, away
I'll be back to raise you, one day
I'll be back to take you, away
