Mostly Water

Too late to see you awake
As I get home, tiptoe to the place where you sleep
I long to find you awake,
As I open your door, I see you’ve drifted away

You’re mostly water
Science has told me so
If you’re mostly water
How can I love you so?

Some say that life’s a machine,
And when it comes to the end,
The light just simply goes out
Others are startled by God and all their fears and doubts
But there is no easy way out

They’re mostly water
They don’t know where they’re going
There’s a life to be had here
Wherever we’re going

I didn’t make the world, the world made me first
But when you get to the sea, you’ll see me first

You’re mostly water
That’s what they always say
But they’re mostly water
So how fucking dare they?

You’re mostly water
Science has told me so
If you’re mostly water
How can I love you so?

And they will tell you to climb,
But water falls, always falls
Don’t let them stand you in line,
‘cause you don’t stand to see much more
