glass of water

Scared of losing all the timeHe wrote it in a letterHe was a friend of mineHe heard you could see your futureInside a glass of waterThe ripples and the rhymesHe asked Will I see heaven in mine?
That is just the way it wasNothing could be betterAnd nothing ever wasOh they say you couldsee your future,Inside a glass of waterWith riddles and the rhymesWill I see heaven in mine? Oh Oh Oh
Ah Son, don´t ask,Neither how full nor emptyis your glassCling to the mastSpend your whole lifeliving in the pastGoing nowhere fast
So he wrote it on the wallThe hollowest of halosIs no halo at allTelevisions said and pastIn figurines and leaderssaying nothing at allAnd he chimed stars inheaven aligned Oh Oh Oh
Ah Son, don´t ask,Neither how full norempty is your glassCling to the mastSpend your whole lifeliving in the pastGoing nowhere fast
