This boy and girl were lovers
They came from different towns
Now they both live in the same one
And see eachother around
He saw her at the rose ball
Just the other day
She showed him what she bought there
And they struggeled for what to say

They say we're made mostly of water
So how come we cant find the sea?
They say true love creeps up on ya slowly
Oh, how blind some people can be

This boy and girl had troubles
Lasted 15 rounds
They both threw in the towel
No one took the crown
Time it tends to pass us
The other way
Now he sells insurance, and shes in an ununion play

Oh, how I wish we were like water
Float on down to the sea
If you find true love at your door knockin'
Invite her in, make her some tea

This boy and girl were lovers
Came from differnt towns
Now they both live in the same one
They see eachother round

They say we're made mostly of water
So how come we can't find the sea
They say true love creeps up on ya slowly
Oh, how blind some people can be
