Richie Havens - Standing on the Water lyrics

[Richie Havens - Standing on the Water lyrics]

Why do we surround ourselves with
Houses and big cars?
And try to make out, we got it made!
When nothing really belongs to us
We're only passing through
We're part of a mascaraed

When we're standing on the water
Talking to the wall
Making so much matter up
There's no matter at all!
Got to get a hold of ourselves
So easy to fall!

Standing on the water talking to the wall
Yet we look around us
We see trouble everywhere
Living off the air that we breathe
I know we like to hang out
In the country for a while
Theres something that you just can't believe



When we're standing on the water
Talking to the wall
So many pictures looking at
Us through a smile
Making us one thing we don't need
So many people telling us just what
To do, what we are, And what we should be
When we're standing on the water
Talking to the wall
Talking to the wall, talking to the wall
