Tekst piosenki
When the joy had left your body
And you were locked into your own pulse
You used to love to sit by the water
And watch it lapping on the rocks
And every time you put your feet in
You cry out and you pray
But its all downhill from here, baby
So naturally, I can't stay
First you roll your eyes to heaven
Say you've never had love so divine
But it will go from more than ever
To not enough in no time
You will push and
You will push until
You push me away
I hear you cry out for your water
I know you'll curse it someday
I guess for me there's been few
Who've walked up smiling and drawn a line
Between so far and from now on
Yes a big glowing life time
And I've been disappointed
I've been heart-broken
I too have loved from afar
But we are 78% water
Even our pumping hearts
