Steve Sloane - Don't Ask Me How the Water Is

Way out in the lake there is a place where I can't touch
And though I've always loved to swim that was always wet enough
Everything's distorted when you see it from above
But clarity will follow thee
Because opening your eyes beneath well that's love

Don't ask me how the water is
Just listen to me swim
Keep my towel in the sun
Try to love my wrinkled skin

I could tread until I'm dead and still I wouldn't know
The gift of drowning calls to me and when it does I slow
We are in the water we are in the undertow
Just stay with it don't counterfeit and never let it go

Don't ask me how the water is
Just listen to me swim
Keep my towel in the sun
Try to love my wrinkled skin
Drink the lake and drown the ache
And give yourself a break
It's all learning how to stay
It's all learning how to say
