Water of Love Lyrics

High and dry in the long hot day Lost and lonely every way Got the flats all around me sky up above I need a little water of love
I've been too long lonely and my heart feels pain Crying out for some soothing rain I believe I have taken enough I need a little water of love
Water of love deep in the ground No water here to be found [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/water-of-love-lyrics-mark-knopfler.html ] Some day baby when the river runs free It'll carry that water of love to me
There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high Waiting for me to die If I don't get some water soon I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon
Once I had a woman I could call my own Once I had a woman now my woman is gone Once there was a river now there's a stone You know it's evil when you're living alone
