Don Williams Lyrics for Song: Only Water (Shining in the Air)
 Lyrics for Album: Best Of [2003]
 
 
 
 11607>(Hugh Prestwood)
 
 
 
 Not that long ago I was on the run
 
 People telling me I should be someone
 
 And the things I'd learned were forgotten in my haste
 
 Till I reached the end of the rainbow I had chased.
 
 
 
 It was only water shining in thin air
 
 I put out my hand and there was nothing there
 
 After all the promise, after all the prayer
 
 It was only water shining in the air.
 
 
 
 Now I've got a wife and she sees my through
 
 And I've got a friend I can talk straight to
 
 And I've got some dreams just a bit more down to earth
 
 And I don't forget what a rainbow's really worth.
 
 
 
 'Cause it's only water shining in thin air
 
 I put out my hand and there was nothing there
 
 After all the promise, after all the prayer
 
 It was only water shining in the air.
 
 
 
 If you want fame and fortune, then you just be my guest
 
 If you want to pay those dues, I wish you all the best.
 
 
 
 But it's only water shining in the air
 
 I put out my hand and there was nothing there
 
 After all the promise, after all the care
 
 It was only water shining in the air.
 
 
 
 It was only water shining in the air...
