Water

from Water by Trevor Exter

lyrics

I remember the first time I met you
Stuck your head out of the clear blue water
You could have been my first love

Swimming in each other’s eyes
Thought we could not compromise our freedom
But freedom’s what I’m afraid of

Many miles across the ocean
I’m still swimming in our emotion – water
We never had enough

And in my homeland war is brewing
From every angle men are spewing talk of
Taking off the gloves

Oh water
Oh water

I’m gonna pull myself together
‘Cause the future reads stormy weather
Everywhere I turn there’s something new to burn
Maybe my heart or my money
Maybe my country or my body

In the desert in the blinding light
Most of the songs they glorify water
‘Cause that’s what they have the least of

But in this land of blacks and whites
Of rights and wrongs we testify and we sing songs
We sing songs of love

Oh water
Oh water
Oh water
Oh water
