Water

Running water keeps me thinking
About the time we spent
Like no other you appeared
From higher spirit sent
Love was found and quick forlorn
Far beyond the limits torn
Two parts, uncertain past
Seasons were about to turn
Reality had lost the grip
That used to be so firm

I could fight through anything for love
All of your love
Wanting out of everything your love
Nothing but love

Every gate burst open wide
Some of what came out had better been kept inside
Streams of water hurried down your window pane
On the outside were like needles piercing my pale skin
I won't be safely self-assured
Neither will I take all for granted anymore

Steady with a steady flow
Friction swaying to and fro
Just like now and forevermore

I could fight through anything for love
All of your love
Wanting out of everything your love
Nothing but love

Every gate burst open wide
Some of what came out had better been kept inside
