There's a
shadow coming
As the sky
goes black
It's a
stubborn rain
On a
Nebraska plain
There's a
farmer standing
On a thirsty
ground
He holds
his breath
This is
life or death
It's only water
And it washes
over me
Like a single
river stone
Changes everything
But has no power
on its own
It's only water
There's a
winding canyon
Where a
mountain stood
Miles of
earth and clay
Carried far away
But there's
something holy
In these
cathedral walls
They took a
lot of years
And a lot
of tears
It's only water
And it washes
over me
Like a single
river stone
Changes everything
But has no power
on its own
It's only water
oh woo oh oh
There once
was a wedding
All the wine
was gone
They said
He's just a man
That's where it
all began
It was only water
And it washes
over me
Like a single
river stone
Changes everything
But has no power
on its own
It washes
over me
Like a single
river stone
Changes everything
But has no power
on its own
on its own
It's only water
