From the Desert to the Sea

still not a drop to drink

and

the water nowhere

the water's over there

how far I've come

it's beyond me

beyond the hills

from the desert

I crawled

towards the sea

through sand

the sea

now I see

assuage my thirst

if only I could drink

dried tears

I then cried

Water!

Water!

I then cried

dried tears

if only I could drink...

assuage my thirst

now icy

the sea

through sand

towards the sea

I crawled

from the desert

beyond the hills

it's beyond me

how far I've come

the waters so overt here

the water now here

and

still not a drop to drink!
