Текст песни Moon In the Water - Dawes

When the wind is with me, but somehow out of sight
Not knowing where it comes from or where it goes
That's the way your memory shapes the middle of my night
Since the last time I saw you, and the words you chose

When I said, "This must be what love is
Like I saw it in a dream"
You looked into my eyes and said
"You don't know what you mean
'Cause love is for the fisherman who cast his nets too far upstream
Fishing for the moon in the water"

So I act now as if I've forgot my efforts all in vain
I spent some time with a new girl who made the simple world seem fine
But like a rose placed in a flower pot, a true nature contained
Not knowing what she asks for or what she'll find

When she says, "If I've had love in my life, then surely this is it"
I said, "Anyone who talks like that doesn't understand one bit"
But love is for the fighter born to lose, but never quit
Swinging for the moon in the water

So I left her with her dreams where I thought that she belonged
Not with my secrets, which she heard but never knew
I hoped my loneliness found peace
I hoped my number had been drawn
When all I wanted from her was to remind me of you

So I stay out in the streets hoping to find you anywhere
Now that I understand the woman you need to be
I can feel you in the heat, I can taste you in the air
And I can't help but find your face in everything I see

And once I can admit you're gone, I'll place it on a star
And wait for the day I'm what you need, then reach out for heart
'Cause even if love is more my mistress than my lovers ever are
You'll always be the moon in the water

You'll always be the moon in the water
You'll always be the moon in the water
