Disclaimer: I do not own Tuck Everlasting.
Cold, clear, water run night and day
It was a pity you could not stay
As shallow salt tears fall down my face
I've fallen even further from your grace
Cold, clear, water run clean, run true
Stream down like the droplets of a mornings due
Dank, dark, ocean open my heart
Mend it, and kiss it, and thrash it apart
Cold, clear, water you're fresh, and you're pure
You secretly slither, secretly lure
Each and every time your drink touches my lips
I daintily slurp, chug, and sip
Cold, clear, water run deep
Hurt the harmful people of whom we don't speak
May your brooks deceive us, your creeks conceive us
Trick us, and change us, and emotionally derange us
Cold, clear, water if our love won't break
You are the hardest omen ever at stake
A puddle of you is laid in my lap
You cradle my instincts like warm honey sap
Cold, clear, water you're fruitful and sweet
You wash over white sands and lick at my feet
You rotate past the mountains and over the ice
You cultivate hunger, you made life precise
Cold, clear, water run out and run fast
You must get away from me, I am your past
The light reflects, your true color is blue
Never had the chance to say I loved you too.
