lyrics

Only Water

Our days will be handsome
Our evenings will be bright
I thought we’ll always have it
But we’re losing it tonight
The moon might stay hanging
The sun might shine it’s light
But when the morning comes we’ll have to up and face the fight

And I looked up to the moon and stars -
“Please, oh, cast some light!”
Knowing was a way to end that long, dark, lonely night
Knowing was my way to see your dear face finally
But also to forever close the door
And we walked that road as if it didn't tear our feet apart
As if it’s only water running through our veins

And when the day came - we finally split two ways
Said our last goodbyes and there was nothing left to say - i said
The moon might stay hanging
The sun might shine all day
But when the morning comes we’ll have to up and face away

And I said -
I need you so
But then I couldn't tell you why
Lying was a way to cover up a darker lie
Your lying is okay with me as long as you are there
You said as I forever closed the door
And i walked away as if it didn't tear my feet apart
As if it’s only water running through my veins

And I didn't wanna know but nonetheless -
We lost the fight
Was it really seven years ago? Was it last night?
And when we met again and you asked -
Does it ever snow?
The mountains shook their white heads
I said no.
And I shook your hand as if you didn’t have my only heart
As if it’s only water running through my veins.
