I was pretending it was easy alone
I built a fortress to keep out the unknown
Surrounded myself with the walls of rejection
Trapped in the dungeon for my own protection
Your smile came shining through so pure I knew

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

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

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

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

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
Not a minute too soon
Your love came through for me
You are the water, yeah, you are the water
Not a minute too soon
Your love got through to me
You rescued me just in the nick of time
Not a minute too soon
(Not a minute too soon) you are the water in my desert
(Not a minute too soon) you know your love came through for me, your love got through to me
(Not a minute too soon) I want you to rock me, roll me
(Not a minute too soon) I wanna be the one
