Don Williams - Only Water (Shining In The Air) Lyrics
Not that long ago I was on the runPeople telling me I should be someoneAnd the things I'd learnt were forgotten in my hasteTill I reached the end of the rainbow I had chasedIt was only water shining in thin airI put out my hand and there was nothing thereAfter all the promise, after all the prayerIt was only water shining in the airNow I've got a wife and she sees my throughAnd I've got a friend I can talk straight toAnd I've got some dreams just a bit more down to earthAnd I don't forget what a rainbows really worthCause it's only water shining in the airI put out my hand and there was nothing thereAfter all the promise, after all the prayerIt was only water shining in the airIf you want fame and fortune, then you just be my guestIf you want to pay those dues, I wish you all the bestBut it's only water shining in the airI put out my hand and there was nothing thereAfter all the promise, after all the careIt was only water shining in the airIt was only water shining in the air
