And the spell it was broken
And I saw with my own eyes
I never knew that the water could rise so very high
There was a time I remember
There was a time it was otherwise
There was a time that the water didn't rise and rise
But the wide open water leads to the sea
The wide open water can set you free
I never learned to turn my boat
Into the waves to survive
I let the cruel, cruel water just rise and rise
Was there a time, can I remember?
Was there a time when it was otherwise?
Was there a time that the water didn't rise so very high?
But the wide open water leads to the sea
The wide open water can set you free
