On a dark and rainy night in spring of way back when

I picked up a liar standing in the pouring rain

She was but a young girl but her eyes were very old

Come to me and teach me wisdom

Come to me and fill me with your dreams

'Cause I don't believe

Teach me the power of the Water

Her eyes were blue like the ocean and the lakes below

And spoke of a wisdom forgotten long ago

Scoffing, I was taken toward the end of the pier

In the black of night

And introduced to the Water

Running and screaming, I fled for the shore

As the wind and rain violently whipped her face and breasts

A calm gait and proud air

As she affixes my eyes to her magical stare

Fearing for my life, and I now believe

My mind, heart, and soul were throbbing in the

Current I was caught up in

We flipped the coin that paved the way for our eternity

The sun of purity and hope would be replaced

By a lifetime of regret

One day you will be alone and

You won't have me, but you'll wish I'm here

But I don't believe

I now know the power of the Water

I now know the power of the woman

(She was just sixteen)

And blue magical, mystical eyes

(That you can drown in)
