City Water

The 1900s
city water is not like rain
they both look alike
but they sure don't taste the same
there's a million shades of blue but there's just one black
it's the color of my cat and my big old cadillac
i can't say i love you 'til i see you cry
and the tears in your eyes are a sadness that's all mine
and just when i thought i could not be fooled
i must've realized that the truth can be so cruel
and you can waltz through the ballroom
and i called your name
and you came right away
and you came right away
but you'll never stay
a blast from the past and a daydream day
deja vu and a postcard from a corn maze
i used to be a loner but now i see
everyone i know's insane except for me
city water is just like rain
when both of them, they end up in my drain
la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la
and you can waltz through the ballroom
and i called your name
and you came right away
and you came right away
but you'll never stay
but you'll never stay
and you came and came and came and came right away
oh you came and came and came and came right away
oh you came and came and came and came right away
but you'll never stay
but you never stayed
