lyrics

Water

Was it his troubled youth
was it his broken tooth
was it the lust for the water
was it the truth he dared
was it the cross he bared
people like flies on the water
maybe a bailout
or maybe an easy shout
calling all saints from the water
or just a simple light
sometimes out of sight
all of his thoughts were all right

and I wonder where he keeps
all the love that he brings
when going down to the water
and I wonder if he cries
when the sun in his eyes
tell them and give them surprise

was it the broken nails
was it the words derailed
that brought him down to the water
or just an idea
maybe the biggest deal
raising the sand from the water
and then he had enough
he made people laugh
who wants to go down to the water
no one replied
no one taken the ride
hope they're gonna be all right
