Dire Straits - Water Of Love ( L2 )

High and dry in the long hot day

Lost and lonely every way
Got the flats all around, sky up above
Yes, I need a little water of love

I've been too long lonely and my heart feel pain
Crying out for some soothing rain
I believe I have taken enough
Yes, I need a little water of love

Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Someday baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me

There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
Just awaiting for me to die
If I don't get some water soon
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon

Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Someday baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me

Once I had a woman I could call my own
Once I had a woman. Now my woman—she gone
Once there was a river now there's a stone
You know it's evil when you're living alone

Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Someday baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me

Carry that water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Someday baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
