歌曲名 Across the Water

歌手名 Linda Eder

作词：Jack Murphy/Linda Eder

I started out the way most do

Running on imagination

Out into a world

that I was sure I knew

Add a dose of reality

And a little desperation

I became a stranger

in a stranger land

Wherever I go whatever I see

I still can feel the child carry me

High on an ocean of innocence

'Cause somewhere between

The truth and the dream

There is a moment in time

When you can touch

what you left behind

Across the water

Across the water

Across the water

On a little higher ground

And so it goes with everyone

We're not really all that different

The older that we get

It seems the less we know

We mortals all immortalize

After we apologize for

All the things we should have said

Or could have done

Wherever I go whatever I see

I still can feel the child carry me

High on an ocean of innocence

'Cause somewhere between

The truth and the dream

There is a moment in time

When you can touch what you

Left behind Across the water

Across the water

Across the water

On a little higher ground

The way we were the dreams we had

Don't ever really die

They watch us from a distance

As we wave good-bye

But now and then a backward glance

Reminds us that there's still a chance

So we fill our sails and travel on

Across the water

Every day in every life

Is open to interpretation

Thinking about what might have been

Is a waste of time

I don't need to analyze

All my little contradictions

As long as I can find my way

Back home again

Across the water

Across the water

Across the water

On a little higher ground

Across the water

Across the water

Across the water

On a little higher ground

Across the water

Across the water

Across the water

On a little higher ground

Across the water

Across the water

Across the water

On a little higher ground
