Some day we will all be having the same debates around water that are occurring right now around oil. Don’t know about you, but I need water a bit more than I need oil.
lyrics
I remember when
Our fields were green
And the water was its blood
Shouldn't live like we're dying
But my fight is gone
Gone with the tide
We didn't waste but now, We only want
One more beat, Of mother's heart
Our day was done
When the pulse was sold
We have no shares
To barter with
When I turned down my mouth
And made my bed
I broke my divining rod
No more skipping stones
No more dip and swing
This is my setting song
We didn't waste but now, We only want
One more beat, Of mother's heart
I wish that I
Could transport these words
To the days gone by
Before 'too late" got hold
