Lyrics

[Verse 1] For the sea, I'd wager, for the sea If there was a thing missed by me It's the much-honored chance just to constantly dance With the waves as they roil ceaselessly [Chorus] It's the water It's the water That can wash your whole life away [Verse 2] For a swim, I'd barter, for a swim I'd trade my own mother in If you'd point me to a shore, boy, it would take nothing more To get me frolicking and splashing within [Chorus] It's the water It's the water I would swim so very far away [Bridge] From wet we ooze, and back to wеt we cruise Our perfеct home is the sea If we're not wet, then we don't get to choose So strip and skinny-dip with me [Verse 3] For a drink, please, someone, bring me a wee drink Just one swallow before I sink Into the cradling limbs of the demon that swims 'Neath the oceanic tumble of think [Chorus] It's the water It's the water We could drink our whole life away It's the water It's the water Getting deeper every day It's the water It's the water Let us wallow, baby, oh, let us play
