Colin Hay Water Song Lyrics

Water Song Lyrics

this boy and girl were lovers

came from different towns

now they
both live in the same one

see each other round



he saw her at
the rose bowl

just the other day

she showed him what she bought
there

and they struggled for what to say



they say we're made
mostly of water

so how come we can't find the sea?

they say true
love creeps up on you slowly

oh how blind some people can be



this boy and girl had troubles

lasted fifteen rounds

both threw
in the towel

no one took the crown

and time it tends to pass us

as we look the other way

now he sells insurance

and she's in a
non-union play



oh how i wish we were like water

we'd float
on down into the sea

if you find true love at your door knocking

invite her in make her some tea



this boy and girl were
lovers

came from different towns

now they both live in the same
one

see each other round



they say we're made mostly of
water

so how come we can't find the sea?

they say true love creeps
up on you slowly

oh how blind some people can be
