Without Water

IN THE FALLING HOURS
WE SHARED IN THE DAWN LIGHT
FROM THE MOVING OF THE HANDS
TO THE OPENING OF EYES
​
AS FAR AS I CAN REMEMBER
YOU COULD FIND IN THINGS A SIMPLE LIGHT
RATHER LOOK FOR WHAT IS HIGHER
THEN WHAT SEEMS TO DIE
​
WITH THE LOSS OF THE WORLD
AND THE LAUGHING GAME
FOLLOWING US AGAIN AND AGAIN
BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING MORE
HOW WERE WE TO KNOW IT
​
IN THE HANDS OF TIME
WAS A SONG THAT WE WERE FOLLOWING
IN THE SILENT MOMENT WAITING
THERE IT WAS
​
I HAVE FEARED AND I’VE FALLEN
AND I’VE LOST MY WAY BACK HOME
BUT I’VE NEVER HAD TO WONDER
ABOUT THE LOVE YOU’VE SHOWN
LIKE A FOUNTAIN OR A RIVER
YOU ALWAYS CLEAR MY EYES
AND TO LIVE
WITHOUT WATER
HAS NEVER CROSSED MY MIND
CROSSED MY MIND
CROSSED MY MIND
CROSSED MY MIND
​
LIKE A STONE IN A RIVER
I WAS NEVER ON MY OWN
BUT AT TIMES IT SURE FELT LIKE
I WAS THE ONLY SOUL IN THE WORLD
IT WAS YOU IN YOUR MERCY
THAT LEAD ME TO MY HOME
AND I’LL NEVER BE MISTAKEN
TO THINK I’LL EVER BE ALONE
​
I HAVE FEARED AND I’VE FALLEN
AND I’VE LOST MY WAY BACK HOME
BUT I’VE NEVER HAD TO WONDER
ABOUT THE LOVE YOU’VE SHOWN

LIKE A FOUNTAIN OR A RIVER
YOU ALWAYS CLEAR MY EYES
AND TO LIVE
WITHOUT WATER
HAS NEVER CROSSED MY MIND
CROSSED MY MIND
CROSSED MY MIND
CROSSED MY MIND
