Thirst is not the answer, oceans come and go
I loved her seven seas worth, Lord I loved her so
But she let me down so easy, one slow drop at a time
I would`ve killed myself but it made no sense
Committing suicide in self defense
But I lost everything I brought her
When she said babe, you`re just a wave, you`re not the water
Centuries ago we were living on the gold coast
She was still in love with a long, gone, cold ghost
I was only trying to turn back the tide of her tears
I felt like an endless ocean, rolling through the fog
Full emotion drifting like a weather beaten log
I even thought that I out-thought her
Till she said babe, you`re just a wave, you`re not the water
I said someday we`ll love again, then you`ll know the score
I`ve taught you everything I know and maybe even more
That`s true she said, more than you ever will
I`ve said I`ve been your raging river, precious African queen
I`ve shown you everything that I`ve ever seen
But she knew more than I had taught her
When she said babe, you`re just a wave, you`re not the water
Well I followed her far and wide with all of my will
Water on the move, you know it never stands still
And I moved every muscle, just to prove it can be done
Then up some old sad river, where snow white lilies float
I came to her for mercy, but I hardly rocked the boat
She seemed surprised that I have caught her
But she said babe, you`re just a wave, you`re not the water
