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
