David Wilcox - Distant Water Lyrics
It's like you pass to me this bitter cupSo I can take a sipAnd I know that it's likely gonna burnBut never mind the taste of itI take what I can getIt sure is a hard way to learnI mean look at how I sip your cup of nastyLike I'm lucky for a taste to quench my thirstWhen love creates an optical illusionI'm gonna see it just the way it was rehearsedChorusIf I was dying in the desertI would see shining on the sandTrue love, like distant waterOn dry landI liked everything about you, except the way you treated meBut that didn't seem to matter much at firstI longed for you to fill meLike a wino loves his drinkBut every time you filled me with a thirstChorus'Cause I was looking for a goddess who could save meSo I played the worshipping foolThe colder your kindnessThe more it convinced meYou're just that coolNow just look at how I sip your cup of nastyLike I'm lucky for a taste to quench my thirstWhen love creates an optical illusionI'm gonna see it just the way it was rehearsedChorusTrue love like distant waterOn dry land
