A Cool Drink of Water
Hook: (like a church hymn)
hum, hum
hum, hum
oh! hum, hum
you were my cup
of joy
my cool drink of water
the love I, needed most
and, It was so long ago
oh! it was so far into my past
and I, still can seem
to let you go
and still I,see your face
and still I, feel the pain
of having you,
not there
I,can't remember
was it
the love in your
eyes
(stronger and deeper)
or was it, your golden boy
lady killer charms
that had all the girls
knock-in at your
front door
but memories do fade
and time plays new
games,
and each new year
it,
get harder to remember
your angelic face
but this hell
keeps me
lock away
(self-anger and pain)
not knowing
how in the hell
did I, let you
get away
Hook: (like a church hymn)
hum, hum
hum, hum
oh! hum, hum
you were my cup
of joy
my cool drink of water
the love I, needed most
and I, could not
stop time
from taking you
away
