I don't know much about the sun
I know it keeps the night from lasting way too long
I never quite get to the bottom
I only miss it when it's gone
And even breathing can remind
There isn't much about the air that comes to mind
Except it's thicker at the bottom
Then every breath becomes a sigh
Still I know the water sets us free
Little children, the water's safe to drink
And I know this time
When all is said and done there will be water
I heard there's heaven in the sky
I think it's poetry, the author can't decide
Until he signs it at the bottom
And changes everybody's lives
Yeah, still I know the water sets us free
Little children, the water's safe to drink
And I know this time
When all is said and done there will be water
I don't know much about the sun
It keeps me warm at night and then it travels on
And if it leaves me at the bottom
I hope you miss me when I'm gone
Ooh, still I know the water sets us free
Little children, the water's safe to drink
And I know this time
When all is said and done there will be water
Yes, I know the water sets us free
Little children, the water's safe to drink
And I know this time
When all is said and done there will be water
