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!
