Our Love Is Water

Do you know I saw you standing in the middle of the White River? You were spilling everything, your red backpack open Upturned and emptied I gave you a moment, it was all I could do not to Draw near, nearer still I will have you any form you're in I'd be vapor, I'd be freezing Just to find you in every season 'Cause our love is, our love is water So, I'll come wading toward you through dissolving paper Waving at a distance So, you know it's me approaching And when you show me your countersign I'll know I can- Draw near, nearer still 'Cause I want you any phase you're in I'd be vapor, I'd be freezing Just to find in every season Draw near, nearer still I want to be sure you're listening 'Cause the word bank changes Only to say the same old things At new depths of meaning 'Cause our love is, our love is water I don't have any illusions that I'm the one to save you I'll just be watching your yellow parachute descend like a retriever I'll be there when you land I wanna make your sky open in blooms of borrowed hues from the blueberries We're gonna pick in South Haven When we're full of years and all the ways we changed Just to stay the same So, come crystallize with me in living memory All we do to keep ourselves bonded 'Cause our love is, our love is water (so, draw nearer still) Baby, I don't want the truth of us to always be liquid I want a vow to keep So, draw near, nearer still I will seek you to the furthest end I'd be vapor, I'd be freezing Just to find the bride of my youth again 'Cause our love is, our love is water And our life is a vapor And time is fleeting So, let's rehearse Heaven and Earth meeting
