Okay, well, this is the song called "Water of Love"
This is a strange idea
But it's maybe one you want to think about, alright?
"Water of Love," let's go!
ย
High and dry in the long hot day
Lost and lonely every way
Guess I got the flats all around me, sky up above
I need a little water of love
Too long lonely and my heart feels pain
Crying out for some soothing rain
I believe I have taken enough
I need a little water of love
Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day, baby, when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
ย
Bird up in tree sitting high
Just waiting for me to die
If I don't get some water soon
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon
Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day, baby, when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
ย
Once I had a woman I could call my own
Once I had a woman, now my woman she's gone
Once there was a river, now there's a stone
You know it's evil when you're living alone, keep up
Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day, baby, when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me, carry
Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day, baby, when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
ย
Thank you
