Only Water

Water, only water

Will ever be the same

No ending, no beginning

As the seasons change

The longest time I've been waiting alone like the river

Where as a young girl I used to play a scene

I would throw in flowers and branches

And they would float to my lover

Until the day he'd see them

And they'd bring him here to me

Water, only water

Will ever be the same

My needings only fleeting

As the seasons change

I looked across the lake's surface

And I dreamt of a shelter

I'd go skating to the other side

I know he's out there, catching my faded flowers

Well I could leave tomorrow

But my heart is frozen and the ice is far too thin

Water, only water

Will ever be the same

My needings only fleeting

As the seasons change

Water, only water

Will ever be the same

No ending, no beginning

As the seasons change

Come to the water, play in the water

Walk on the water to me
