Glass Of Water Songtext / Lyric

Scared of losin' all the time

He wrote it in a letter

He was a friend of mine

He heard you could see your future

Inside a glass of water

With ripples and the rhymes

And he asked, "Will I see heaven in mine?"



That is just the way it was

And nothing could be better

And nothing ever was

They say you can see your future

Inside a glass of water

The riddles and the rhymes

"Will I see heaven in mine?"

Ohhhhhhhh






Son

Don't ask

Neither how full nor empty

Is your glass

Cling

To the mast

Spend your whole life

Living in the past

Going nowhere fast



So he wrote it on a wall

The hollowest of halos

Is no halo at all

Televisions selling plastic figurines of leaders

Saying nothing at all

And you chime

"Stars in heaven align"

Ohhhhhhhh



Son

Don't ask

Neither how full nor empty

Is your glass

Cling

To the mast

Spend your whole life

Living in the past

Going nowhere fast



What are we drinking when we're done?

Glasses of water
