this boy and girl were lovers
came from different towns
now they both live in the same one

see each other round

he saw her at the rose bowl

just the other day
she showed him what she bought there
and they struggled for what to say


they say we're made mostly of water
so how come we can't find the sea?

they say true love creeps up on you slowly
oh how blind some people can be


this boy and girl had troubles
lasted fifteen rounds
both threw in the towel

no one took the crown
and time it tends to pass us
as we look the other way

now he sells insurance
and she's in a non-union play


oh how i wish we were like water
we'd float on down into the sea
if you find true love at your door knocking

invite her in make her some tea

this boy and girl were lovers

came from different towns
now they both live in the same one
see each other 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 you slowly
oh how blind some people can be
