Dire Straits - Water of Love lyrics
[Dire Straits - Water of Love lyrics]
High and dry in the long hot day
Lost and lonely in every way
Got the flats all around me, sky up above
Yes, I need a little water of love
I've been too long lonely and
My heart feels pain
Crying out for some soothing rain
I believe I have taken enough
Yes, 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
There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
Just a-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
Once I had a woman I could call my own
Once I had a woman, now my woman she gone
Once there was a river, now there's a stone
You know it's evil when you're living alone
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
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
Lost and lonely in every way
Got the flats all around me, sky up above
Yes, I need a little water of love
I've been too long lonely and
My heart feels pain
Crying out for some soothing rain
I believe I have taken enough
Yes, 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
There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
Just a-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
Once I had a woman I could call my own
Once I had a woman, now my woman she gone
Once there was a river, now there's a stone
You know it's evil when you're living alone
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
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
