中島みゆき 水 song lyrics

I was searching for water, for a long time

Looking for water's shape, finding it has none

Without knowing what water is

I was searching for water, for a long time

Falling rain and wellsprings

Did not constitute water to me

Without knowing what water is

Roving, roving, wandering, wandering

Cold water, clean water, rare water

They all looked like water, but to me they were all dried up

Your breathing is the water's wind

Your heartbeat is the water's heat

You are my water, you are water for my heart

Please give me water, just a little

Everyone is looking for water

There is an endless stream of people who need you greatly

Waiting and waiting, competing and competing

Water shared, water usurped, water stolen back and forth; there's just no water for you

One can't drink one's own heart

We're sad water, we humans are

Who will give me the water for you?

Someone please spare the water for you
