Lyrics
Only Water
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a shadow coming
As the sky goes black
It's a stubborn rain
On a Nebraska plain
There's a farmer standing
On a thirsty ground
He holds his breath
This is life or death
It's only water
And it washes over me
Like a single river stone
Changes everything
But has no power on its own
It's only water
There's a winding canyon
Where a mountain stood
Miles of earth and clay
Carried far away
But there's something holy
In these cathedral walls
They took a lot of years
And a lot of tears
It's only water
There once was a wedding
All the wine was gone
They said He's just a man
That's where it all began
It was only water
