Lonnie Holley - There Was Always Water Lyrics

It's like magic It's like magic
Water
It's like magic Water
We all need water
It's like magic
Water's always been around
Water's been up and, ah, and water's been down
So mystifying
We all need water It's been around Oh, oh, oh
Ever since
Ever since
Earth was bound
And created
So small
We need water
This here water
Need water
So many times
Through the act of precipitation
Through the act of precipitation
And I remember
Moisturizing all the way to rising
Up to the cloud
Gathering
And ends up down in the ocean
Now, now, now, now, now
That everything flows down
On a tiny stream
On a leaf, you know
Then it drops, drops, drops, drops, drops
Drop after drop
Then it makes a stream
Down the Earthly way
Information
All the way to the little drips, oh
From the little drips, oh
Down, yeah, yeah
Down the creek, now
And down the creek
Down the creek
It fills up lakes
It fills up, oh, mighty seas
Spills into rivers
Keeps running on Keeps running on
This here water Water like magic
All life need it
All life need it
Think about a mother's womb
Having water in it
And she gets ready to give birth
The water breaks, ah
And it spills
And then here you come
And then you'll be born
Be born out of water
Water, water, water
We all need water
Oh, wonderful water
Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink
The wonders of water
Just to sustain us
Down to the oceans deep
Just to sustain us
And all the formations in the oceans
Life formations
Just to sustain us
And all the acts of precipitation
Just to sustain us
Being a part of every sea, yeah
Water
Ah, we all need water
Humans
Deep off into Mother Universe
Deep off into Mother Universe
There's still water
To the smallest
To the tallest and the largest
We all need water
