Water - Aisha Badru

Composed by：Aisha Badru

Why are you holding on

To what you know is gone

You know it wasn't meant to be

Both knees are on the floor

You reach out your hands for more

Like the shoreline trying it's best to hold on to the sea

People are water they need to be free

They need to explore more where they want to be

We cannot be keepers of anyone's key

We have to love in a way that sets them free

And darling believe me there will come a time

When the earth will shake and the stars will align

And you won't have to beg for anyone's time

So trust and believe everything will be fine

People are water let 'em be

Let it breathe let it leave

What are you crying for

You know the world is yours

And what is meant for you will be

So loosen up your grasp

Everything's not meant to last

Let the rising tide withdrawal and go back to the sea

'Cause you see

People are water they need to be free

They need to explore more where they want to be

We cannot be keepers of anyone's key

We have to love in a way that sets them free

And darling believe me there will come a time

When the earth will shake and the stars will align

And you won't have to beg for anyone's time

So trust and believe everything will be fine

People are water let 'em be

Let it breathe let it leave

People are water let 'em be

Let it breathe let it leave

People are water they need to be free

They need to explore more where they want to be

We cannot be keepers of anyone's key

We have to love in a way that sets them free

And darling believe me there will come a time

When the earth will shake and the stars will align

And you won't have to beg for anyone's time

So trust and believe everything will be fine
