The Cats - The Water Will Be Deep lyrics

I've never seen the water run so quietly I've never seen the island quite so close My eyes are too long, or my arms are too short ‘Cause I really thought that I could almost reach The perfect body on the other beach I'd like to try to walk up to the other side I know it can, it has been done before Maybe even I can fly if I try ‘Cause I really want myself so much to reach The perfect body on the other beach The water will be deep when you take it for a walk Yes, I know but how did he do it then The sky will be too high when you're headin' for a flight Maybe you are right and I'm only drunk again, yes again The water will be deep when you take it for a walk Yes, I know but how did he do it then The sky will be too high when you're headin' for a flight Maybe you are right and I'm only drunk again I've never seen the water run so quietly I've never seen the island quite so close, so close My eyes are too long, or my arms are too short ‘Cause I really thought that I could almost reach The perfect body on the other beach The perfect body on the other beach
