The sixth song from Now, Now’s comeback record, “Holy Water”, much like its fellow tracks, uses heavy religious imagery to symbolise Cacie’s romantic desires. With constant reference to angels, sinners, and holiness, she paints vivid images of purity in her love, but with an edge of darkness and ins...
[Verse 1]
I was walking outside in the moonlight
At the church, on the ground, let nobody know
When I hear it in your voice for the first time
I was staring at the light through the window
I was waking up early, feeling undone
I was crying outside on the front lawn
But you call me with no hesitation
And you love me with no reservation
[Chorus]
You touch me like an angel
But you kiss me like a sinner
Got me dying for a miracle
Baby step into the holy water
[Verse 2]
Tied to you, baby, like an anchor
Every second go a little deeper
Holding my breath, can't get enough
Holding my breath, don’t let it stop
I was up all night feeling messed up
Got a couple bad days I’m ashamed of
But you call me when you know I'm thinking too much
Holding me back, gotta give it up
[Chorus]
You touch me like an angel
But you kiss me like a sinner
Got me dying for a miracle
Baby step into the holy water
You touch me like an angel
But you kiss me like a sinner
Got me dying for a miracle
Baby step into the holy water
[Bridge]
With everything around you changing
I just want to be the one remaining
And I’ll take my chance cause I know you got a wild heart
But I’ve loved you from the start
I’ll love you like you want it to end
A love so deep they won’t understand
How could I stop when I know what it feels like
Yeah, I found myself so alive in your holy light
[Chorus]
You touch me like an angel
But you kiss me like a sinner
Got me dying for a miracle
Baby step into the holy water (step into the holy water)
You touch me like an angel (touch me like an angel)
But you kiss me like a sinner (kiss me like a sinner)
Got me dying for a miracle
Baby step into the holy water (step into the holy water)
