Cool Water

If I hadn't gone through hell, I wouldn't have alighted on your face, on your face, on your face

Those tricky little flames were nothing but delighted as they burned, burned, burned me on my way

When I reached the other side, your arms were open wide, you were the cool, cool water for the pain



If I hadn't missed the boat, I wouldn't have collided with my fate, with my fate, with my fate

Those tricky little waves were nothing but delighted as they crashed and pushed me back again

But when I reached the other side, your arms were open wide, you were the cool, cool water for the pain



It doesn't matter that I fought so hard

They don't give trophies for trying

But I found the prize when I looked into your eyes



If I hadn't lost the bet, I wouldn't have decided to behave, to behave, to behave

Those tricky little players were nothing but delighted as I caved

But when I reached the other side, your arms were open wide, you were the cool, cool water



It doesn't matter that I fought so hard

They don't give trophies for trying

But I found the prize when I looked into your eyes



If I hadn't given up, I wouldn't have been chided to be brave, yes, be brave, you must be brave

Those tricky little games were nothing but delighted as I rolled the dice and I played

When I reached the other side, your arms were open wide, cool water
