Salt Water

Julian Lennon

We are a rock revolving


Around a golden sun


We are a billion children rolled into one


So when I hear about the hole in the sky


Saltwater wells in my eyes





We climb the highest mountain


We'll make the desert bloom


We're so ingenious we can walk the moon


But when I hear of how the forest have died


Saltwater wells in my eyes





Bridge:


I have lived for love


But now that's not enough


For the world I love is dying And now I'm crying


And time is not a friend (no friend of mine)


As friends we're out of time


And it's slowly passing by ....right before our eyes





We light the deepest ocean


Send photographs of Mars


We're so enchanted my how clever we are


Why should one baby feel so hungry she cries


Saltwater wells in my eyes





Bridge





We are a rock revolving


Around a golden sun


We are a billion children rolled into one


What will I think of me the day that I die


Saltwater wells in my eyes


Saltwater wells in my eyes
