I built a fortress to keep out the unknown
Surrounded myself with walls of rejection
Trapped in the dungeon for my protection

Your smile came shinin' through, so pure I knew

 Chorus:
Not a minute too soon, your love came through for me
You are the water in my desert
Not a minute too soon, your love got through to me
You rescued me just in the nick of time

Time after time I threw my heart away, my faith was fading fast day after day
I had enough of giving in
I couldn't lay down my pride so love just pushed me aside

Your kisses washed away my thirst, every touch felt like the first

chorus

In this angry world, I thought loneliness would shelter me
My broken spirit cried in vain, till you set me free

(Solo)

Your kisses washed away my thirst, every touch feels just like the first

chorus repeats out...
